When you want to Sell, you can't just push the button on your laptop, like I can with my Futures trading and get out of your trade, with or without a Profit. 

I am trying to decided between PC or MAC for my new business laptop.  

All great responses guys and as a newcomer it's great to hear people who have been at it for quite some time, still talking about their "job" with so much enjoyment.And even when I say to myself, ok tonight is relax night, I still always find myself back on the laptop researching something to do with real estate investing.I guess to counter act my question.

I will get on my laptop in about an hour.

To me its a lot cleaner when my business buys my laptop or software or internet service or cell phone and my business pays me mileage for driving my car, etc. 

Guys;  MySQL is easily installed on any PC or Mac :)  In fact, so is the Apache server, PHP and Perl - - my laptop is my development platform for web services.As to what data is important or useful is GREATLY dependent upon the intended usage.

But Auntie Hattie ... the grammar and spelling features on my laptop and, especially, my phone misspell words like color and organization {<- look did it again} all the time!

Will try again on laptop later.

I walk every. single. house. that I offer on. 1- it gets me in the field where the guys behind the laptop won't make it which gives me access to deals that will never show up in a spread sheet or e-mail chain.

Desk in room to sit and do work or laptop stuff is great, if there is room for it.
