Laptop or PC? Hard to choose, but if I really had to choose it'd be laptop.

Did you ever see the Sound of Music? Yeah, loads of times. I even have the sheet music for it ;-)

Do you like hip hop or rock better? Rock. I question my strong dislike for hip hop actually, I think it has an edge of racism to it. There is good music in almost all genres though.
