Desktop - Sequencer at 45 degrees to keyboard/monitor, use speedy entry (do mostly composing and arranging) 19" monitor sound through old stereo amp & speakers (transfer arrangements in stereo to sequencer) use laptop for back-up (used once for Finale when desktop had power supply replaced) not as fast on laptop - position pad gets in the way (one touch and I'm typing somewhere weird)

I, for example, have both, but my laptop is my real machine upon which I do 60-70% of my work. If my observation of an observed group of undergraduate students is accurate, they are closer to 90% in laptop usage.
