reno Posted June 6, 2005 CID Share Posted June 6, 2005 I think a main reasoning is the peices are smaller. Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/5169-laptop-and-desktop/#findComment-53441 Share on other sites More sharing options...
php Posted June 6, 2005 CID Share Posted June 6, 2005 um... I would assume because they're smaller and more intricate... and heavier duty (or they should be) edit: It would be nice if it told me someone replied while I was typing... I agree with reno Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/5169-laptop-and-desktop/#findComment-53443 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallowEarth Posted June 6, 2005 CID Share Posted June 6, 2005 I might think that the technology that went into developing parts for laptops is still being paid for, since they are not as common as desktops, and the technology is adapted from desktops too.

coknuck Posted June 6, 2005 CID Share Posted June 6, 2005 I think they are more expensive because they are used at most work places. The convenience of taking your work on a plane,home .ect ect Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/5169-laptop-and-desktop/#findComment-53504 Share on other sites More sharing options...
netmasta Posted June 6, 2005 CID Share Posted June 6, 2005 Also remember some laptop parts are made for a specific model nevermind specific brand. That can make parts become rare and thus expensive pretty quickly.
