miniPC or laptop?

I will almost always use the miniPC attached to the MLD rather than plug my laptop into the MLD. Here are the pros and cons as I see them of using the attached miniPC. YMMV.

(Pro) These are some of the fastest computers in the school, with more RAM  and better CPU than most laptops

(Pro) As an eT4L computer it has the full range of DET software available

(Pro) Touch screen drivers are already installed

(Pro) My personal computer is available for use by me during class, Compass entries etc. I am also not exposing my personal computer to the class.

(Con) Takes a minute or so to log in at the start of the lesson
