Just to put things in perspective, at the current difficulty and BTC price, you'll need about 6 TH/sec (Terahash, aka 6000 GH) to produce $4 per day. That also assumes your electricity is free and you are willing to run whatever hardware you have flat out, 24/7.
None of the above even remotely fits a laptop. It cannot even hit 1/10000 of the hashrate, and it's not built for 24/7 operation flat out. Laptops do short bursts of computation just fine, but not several minutes, much less hours all day. Attempting this will produce literally nothing in terms of BTC, and will shorten the life of you laptop significantly. A desktop might not have it's life shortened a lot, but it's still woefully underpowered.
Read lots of the threads here to see what you actually need if you want to mine BTC.
I've seen post after post here not come to the simple conclusion that this is the MINING (ALTCOINS) section so if you keep referencing bitcoin statistics it's really not going to help at all.
Mining BTC is not worth it but yet again it's not even something you were asking about Mike.
I'd go ahead and mine on Nicehash, ZCash, ETH or so on if you really would like to try to make a little money. Though you won't make it to $4 a day cause that 1060 in the laptop is barely going to make $.60 per day.
Good luck and have fun bud!
