    I’m in my 40’s and haven’t bought a laptop yet. The need has never come up. I do purchases and all serious browsing on my desktop because big monitor and good focused seating position. Every time I have somehow had to use a laptop has been uncomfortable. They are slow, the screen is too small, pointing and clicking takes forever unless you connect a mouse, the ergonomics is just terrible.

      I’m almost 40 and just got my first laptop for work recently. I find myself creating and editing documents on my desktop and only using the laptop to view them and to make some minor corrections while away from the desktop. I could do that more comfortably with a tablet tbh.

      It does help if the laptop has touchscreen though. I hate trackpads and will never get used to them.
