Welcome to UHH carmelcat4, glad you joined us. I prefer a desktop computer for my PP. Screen size and power are some of my considerations.
Have fun, learn and enjoy the forum.

Hi, I am pretty new to this photography thing. Have wanted to learn more about photography since in the 7th grade my science teacher was an amateur photographer and taught us how to develop our own black and white film. I retired about a year ago and bought an EOS Rebel T6i. I moved to the country where there are a lot of deer and all kinds of wonderful wildlife and have gotten some (what I consider) great shots so far. Stumbled across your site and hope to learn a lot from you. Am wanting to buy a computer for editing and storage and would love some input as whether to buy a laptop or desktop and any other advice you might have to offer on that topic. Thanks in advance for advice. Looking forward to getting to know all of you better!

Welcome to the forum. I have used both laptops and desktops. At this time my go to option is the desktop with Adobe Lightroom, and Photoshop CC (the monthly subscription software). It is also on my laptop. The main reason for using the desktop is the shear number of files I have, since I am currently using a 4 terabyte drive for the files and processing and 3 terabyte drive for backing up my raw files and Carbonite to back up both my computer and the 4 terabyte drive.
Hope to see your Wildlife photos.
