    Play online poker on a laptop or desktop?

    I have poker software loaded on both my laptop and my old desktop.

    The desktop runs off a cat5 cable so the connection is more stable and has a bigger monitor so I can play more tables.

    The laptop is newer, portable, has all my programs like Hold'em Manager, but it's got a much smaller monitor.

    Probably 99.9% of my online poker is done on the laptop.

    What do you guys play on?

    110% of it on the laptop....just so much more convenient. I have a macbook and the wireless connection is fine, rarely if ever have disconnect issues. Screen is only like 13" but I can still 24 table.. I just leave them at their normal size and don't bother tiling them. When the table is 2"x2", it kinda tilts me

    I may start playing on a desktop. I need bigger tables. Can't stand to resize everything so small I can barely see the cards.

    I don't own a laptop so on my desktop. I have a custom built modem that I a local computer shop built for me. If I had a laptop I would have a mouse plugged into as I don't like using the built in ones they have.. and hook it up my own keyboard and monitor also.

    Hmm not really sure but the lady I work for sometimes that is how she does, she has a huge monitor and keyboard and mouse just have them all hooked up to her laptop, so much easier.
