Differences: 1.Size...Laptops Are Smaller Most Of The Time But You Can Get Some Very Small Desktop PC's 2.Laptops Normally Have Less Features And Are Slower Unless You Own Something Like A Gaming Laptop Which In My Opinion Are Better Than Most Desktops And Other Laptops Similarities: 1.All Have The Same Operating System Choices You Will Never Find An OS For 1 Thing And Not The Other. 2.Both Make Your Life Much Easier.
