Going by those specs, neither one would be enough to run Raids, PVP im not sure. You will experience Lag with both. The Laptop might be good enough for light raiding, but we need to know its video card.
Options?
Buy a new Computer, even cheap systems would be better.
Upgrade Memory and video card on the Desktop, would help a lot there.
+ 1gb of Ram. (PC2700 184 pin, DDR SDRAM, 1gb Max,
2x 512mb
)
+ 256mb, 512mb, or 1gb Video card. (Standard PCI,
not PCIe, you have no AGP or PCIe
)
+ Optional: Hard drive larger than 80GB.
With the laptop, whats the full model number? Ex: "Presario cq60-?"
My honest opinion: Spend $500 or more and buy something new. With the amount of money you will spend upgrading, it will not be worth it. Any system you buy from WalMart or Newegg will be a lot better than what you currently have.

The notebook would likely be the best choice, if those are the specs. You will have a very rough time playing wow on the desktop.

Ya, that will work ok for WoW... May not be the best in Raids, but you should be ok. Make sure Shadow Quality is turned down... Fiddle with the graphics settings to get a feel for what works best.
