They use more fragile PCB, drives, and fans that are insufficient to cool the things. They just are not as reliable, and the fact that you carry them from place to place makes them even less reliable. The Laptops I've used seem to be very robust in construction, with the exception of an older IBM Thinkpad and a Compac Laptop I had. The E-Machine Inow have is very robustly made and seems very durable. Don't see my self ever going back to a Desk Top unit. Gene
