These days, it is very rare to find a person who is not walking around with at least one piece of technology with them. Whether they have the latest generation of the iPhone, iPad mini, Macbook Pro or Android, most people carry their entire lives in a pocket-sized computer. Technology is shrinking in physical size while becoming more powerful, something that applies to phones, tablets and customized laptops and desktops. Consequently, it is more common for somebody to have a Macbook Air as their home's main computer than a bulky desktop.

If you are thinking about making the switch and buying a laptop, here are some of the advantages offered:

• Energy-saving: Desktop computers remain plugged in at all times, so they are a constant source of energy consumption in your home. Laptops can be unplugged when the battery is charged enough and can last for several hours depending on the model your purchase and how heavily it is used.
• Portability: The biggest advantage a laptop has over a desktop is portability. You will not be stuck in the same place every time you want to get some work done or just kill some time browsing the internet. You can take all of your information with you in an easy-to-carry package, so there is no need to worry about leaving something behind.
• Storage: A laptop is just physically smaller than a desktop, so it can be stored away more easily. Even when not in use, the laptop will take up minimal room on your desk or table, while a desktop's bulkier build will take up space that could be used for other items.
