How To Choose a Laptop or Notebook
Choosing a laptop gives you the freedom to work with your laptop on the go or around the home rather then find yourself chained to one room. Laptops also lighter and much more stylish. Many people are opting from desktop computers altogether and use a laptop for those their computer needs.
What type of laptop or netbook should I choose?
1.
Before you purchase, you need to carefully consider which type of laptop would suit you best, weighing up things such as portability against power and price.
2.
Find out about the configuration of the laptop including the hard drive size, amount of RAM (Random Access Memory), processor and its speed depending on your requirements and usage.
3.
Find out if the computers bottom gets uncomfortably hot when it is running – an issue in case you actually use the laptop on your lap.
4.
Select a laptop with a minimum of two USB 2 connections and at least one Firewire (IEEE1394) connection. USB 2 and Firewire are extremely popular and fast ways of connecting iPods, cameras plus some phones to computers
5.
To get more convenience and flexibility, choose a laptop with an in-built DVD Burner however, you can not get with a netbook.
6.
You might find the OS installed in a netbook not the same as the main one youre familiar with. Even though some come with Windows XP installed, several versions make use of the free Linux operating system.
7.
Ensure that your laptop includes a lithium ion battery, as theyve got more battery life and they are easily rechargeable.
8.
Look into screen size and resolution. Current liquid-crystal display (LCD) screens on laptops measure from 13 to 21 inches diagonally. Some netbooks has only 10.1-inch display.
