Are you using a laptop or a desktop?

I'm not sure if I should be posting this question here or in Computers,
But I'de like to learn about using a laptop with a wireless router.

Do some here use a laptop and when needed plug in printers, cameres, or game controls (usb port)
How about speaker systems into a laptop?
What is the typical or max distance that you can take the laptop from the wireless router and still get an internet connection?

I basically want to take my desktop (a dell) and give it to my daughter to put in her bedroom and get myself a laptop and still use me all in 1 printer , fax ,copy maching and scanner, at my desk,
and keep my (kick ass) Harman/Kardon speaker system at my desk , and unplug those things quickly when I want to take the desktop with me.
I would think for the wireless connection, I would have to put the wireless router in my daughters room and the laptop would just have a wireless card.
but I wondering how far I would be able to take the laptop out of my house and get an internet connection.
Thanks!

If the tread belongs in computers, moderators please move it there!
