Nowadays due to the hectic lifestyles and pressure we live today, the choice between a desktop and a laptop computer was pretty clear desktop models were full-featured, less expensive, and ergonomically designed, but also bulky and immobile. Laptops were portable, but also more costly, with limited features. While some of these differences remain, they're less distinct. Laptops, also called notebooks, have come down in price and pack more power and features. Desktop models take up less spaceJust as Internet capability is no longer a desktop vs. laptop decision point, features and functions are equivalent between the two, although desktops generally have better sound quality. According to Consumer Reports, comparable models have nearly identical hardware, including CD and DVD drives and ports for adding peripherals. Dependence on ICT is by no means uniform throughout the world and developing nations have a tendency to exhibit a lower rate of ICT addiction due to the unevenness of development and the lack of suitable infrastructure to support its presence. It is inevitable that the modern man would have to deal with communications technology for much of his life; the issue only becomes a problem when Man is reduced to being absolutely dependent upon the technology that was suppose to serve and make his job easier in the first place. Our study has specifically focused on what we believe constitutes the bulk of ICT addicts today,see the youths of our society. The results of the short survey reveals that most youths are aware of their level of dependency though many do not consider it as an addiction in spite of the withdrawal symptoms they exhibit and the effect it is having on their family relationships. On the whole, the society is seeing a trend leaning towards addiction. It is pertinent thus to introduce measures to raise awareness and offer aid to those already addicted through the various social bodies discussed above.
