Tips for Buying a Notebook
Why Notebooks Are So Popular
Notebook sales have been booming, increasing by approximately 20% annually in the United States. The primary appeal is their portability, but there are other important features to consider when purchasing one.
The Evolution of Notebooks
Notebooks first emerged in the early 1980s. Unlike the sleek models we have today, these early versions were heavier and bulkier. Despite their initial lack of commercial success, they set the stage for technological advancements that have transformed them into essential devices.
Choosing the Right Size
Today's notebooks come in various sizes to suit different needs:
1. Tablet PC: Light and compact, weighing no more than 4 pounds.
2. Ultra Portable: Slightly larger, also around 4 pounds, usually lacking an internal CD/DVD drive and featuring a display of 12 inches or smaller.
3. Thin and Light: Mid-size with a 14-inch display and approximately 7 pounds in weight, offering wireless connectivity and a combo CD-RW/DVD.
4. Desktop Replacement: Heavier, weighing over 7 pounds, with larger displays (15-17 inches) and numerous features.
Performance Matters
Performance is crucial. Look for notebooks with the latest CPUs, ample RAM, and significant storage space. High performance is essential for handling various computer tasks efficiently.
Additional Features to Consider
- DVD Player: Perfect for entertainment on the go.
- Wireless Connectivity: Essential for staying connected, with options like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and infrared ports to link devices.
- Expansion Capability: Modern notebooks support plug-in PC cards or the newer ExpressCard standard for enhanced multimedia capabilities.
The Bottom Line
Notebooks are indispensable for anyone needing portable computing, whether for personal or professional use. Their compact design and functionality make them an attractive choice. If you're in the market for mobile hardware, notebooks offer a versatile and affordable solution.
