@ anil, very true, the time is not far when you will have a full internet connected watch around your wrist that will not only keep you connected with your friends and relatives but your doctors and suppliers too.

I am very comfortable with my desktop and so find no need to switch over to any other gadget. 

Agreed, people living mostly at home find a desktop as best way of computing but people on the go have no choice but to use different ways of stay connected.

Agreed. What I meant was that people of the elderly age group are much familiar with desktops and changing over to smartphone is a matter of adjustment which many find difficult. I myself took to smartphone after a fairly long time as I was comfortable with desktop/laptops. But yes there are many in this age group who are smartphone savy like you are. Best wishes.

The belief that elders cannot adjust with the new generation gadgets like Smart phones, I pads etc is wrong. I use all kinds of latest gadgets ranging from Laptops to I pads.

But I do not use Smart phones for the reason that they are useless when it comes to Digital painting.Digital painting is possible only with Desktop models.

One can do lot many things with a smartphone apart from doing his professional duties/requirements. For instance you do not have to login to your computer when you have send a photo to your relatives, just click it and push the send button which is not possible by a computer unless you use a camera upload it and then send it.

While agreeing all the Plus points in a smart phone, I want to ask which Smart phone has the ability to paint that can stand to the exacting standards of  commercial Advertising . While this is going on, my son came and read about the discussion. He uses a latest model of Smart phone. He affirmatively said except a fast Desktop, no Smart phone has the  facility to paint and draw of your kind.

 

As technology grows, the size of devices is decreasing for the ease of use. Starting from mainframe computers to desktops, laptops, tablets and fablets we can see that the all or part of the features of big machines are introduced in small machines. 

Good that size of the gadgets like Smart phones are decreasing as the technology is galloping.  As far as size is concerned, its OK. But what about the utilitarian aspect ? I want to use a gadget that can provide me the facility of Painting for my Advertising purposes. Smart Phones can provide me that facility ?

Those who have graduated from desktop to  laptop to smartphone will find desktop to be better esp, for users who are say more than 55 to 60 years and above in age. However the future belongs to smartphones. Salesof desktop and laptops are falling every year appreciably.

 

yeah you are right but this also have reason and the reason is that the laptop and desktop are not compatible for human and whereas the smartphone is so much user friendly that anyone can easily run it with an ease. and in smartphone we can call other whereas in laptop and desktop we can't.
