   I tend to find laptops both technically and ergonomically unsuitable for
   heavy development work. Regardless of how powerful a laptop is, it
   tends to lack juice when doing heavy builds compared with a desktop
   having the same specifications. Only the high-end gaming lappys are
   somewhat ok.

   I now use laptops only for testing and presentations. I've had back pains
   when I was using the Ferrari continuously 10-12 hrs a day. All problems
   disappeared when I switched to my home desktop. I use a desktop at
   office as well.

Moinak.
