I've never owned a laptop. I don't like the small keyboards, never travel on
business and the repair/price of purchase are other reasons I've never
bought one.

Not too mention, it is one of the products of choice for thieves.

I bought a computer once. It was faulty. I've built them myself since 
(except laptops - I took one to pieces once, it didn't fit back in the case 
but it worked after I fixed it, just with a lot of wires on the outside).
