- easier to replace/upgrade parts going forward (futureproof)


this cannot be overstated enough.

I had a desktop PC that I used for over 10 years and had no real problems keeping up with technology during that time period. the laptops I've owned in the meantime.... if something goes wrong they are usually VERY expensive to fix and it's usually a better idea to just replace it with something newer and better anyway. I owned three in the same period of time and they lasted around 2-4 years each.

so, over time, the desktop is the better option by far. like if your price point is 400. do you want to pay 400 now and then maybe 100 in maintanence every few years for like 700 total over a period of 10 years. or do you want to pay 400 now and then 400 again every few years to replace the entire damn laptop, for like 1200 total, 1600 if you're unlucky.
