My first and only laptop has been through two harddrives. Luckily, they were covered under warranty both times. I'm so glad for that, but after nearly four years of having it now, I'm ready for a new laptop completely. I bought my desktop last year and I'm so grateful to have it. I have it customized the way I want it. I love that desktops, at least for me, are far more customizable. And I've never really had any problems with this, so it makes me happy. :'D
My first desktop was comprised of leftover parts and a few new ones my dad put together. While it ran, I didn't feel too impressed about it, but I never had to pay for it so I could never complain. I gave it back to my dad when he bought me a laptop, so my mom would have her own computer. I like my desktop more because I paid for it myself. xD Still, I'm pretty sure something was screwy with the first desktop, as it got hit with EVERYTHING. Anything imaginable that could go wrong, DID.
My laptop felt no different.
This one has had hiccups and I need to reformat my harddrive sometime soon, but it's been a lot more stable and I'm hoping it'll stay that way for more years than any of my other stuff.
I've never been good with hardware or software myself. It doesn't matter what it is - computer, game console, DVD player. I'm just not technologically inclined. xD
