Laptop or Desktop PC for Xmas

If you have students in your home, a computer can make a good Xmas gift. Computer skills are now required for effective learning, so buy a computer as an Xmas gift for the whole house.

Mind you, PCs are not meant for only students but for everybody. Hence, everyone in the family will benefit from a PC at home.

You have a desktop or laptop computer to choose from this Xmas. Laptop PCs are more expensive than desktop PCs, but come with the added advantage of mobility. If you want to carry your computer around then a laptop may be worth the higher price. Note however that Laptops are more expensive to upgrade and maintain.

You can also choose between a new branded, an assembled (cloned) or a Used (Tokunbo) computer for Xmas gifts. Used and assembled computers are cheaper but if you want to enjoy latest IT technologies, we advise that you pay the higher price for a new branded PC. If however you cannot buy a new branded computer we advice you buy cloned or used PC as any computer is better than no computer.
