Default Office floor: laminate vs. tree wood

We're about to move house, and one of the "new" bedrooms will be used as
an office.

Our present office has a carpeted floor, and moving an office chair on
it has f^hrucked the carpet and underlay. SWMBO tells me not to move the
chair around on the floor, but to get up each time I want something from
the bookcase or whatever. I ignore her.

The new office has a laminate floor, which doesn't look all that bad,
but real wood would look so much better. Which would be harder wearing,
bearing in mind that I'm 18+ stone (about 115kg), so there's going to be
quite a load on said surface? If wood parquet is the better, any
recommendations as to type of wood and type of varnish?
