6 Reasons To Choose A Notebook Over A Computer Desktop by OwillyOscar(m): 9:29am On Mar 27, 2015
Sometimes we are so used to working on a desktop computer that we don’t put other options into consideration when it comes time to purchasing a new computer. Computer notebooks – which were once called laptops – offer a number of advantages over a computer desktop. I have listed and explained the six reasons why you should take a very close look at notebooks.

Reasons to Choose a Notebook Over a Computer Desktop:

1. Better Displays


Talking of class when it comes to computers, the size and quality of computer notebooks display has improved so dramatically that there’s a huge difference between laptops and a computer desktop. To prove my point, here is an example, you can get Apple’s MacBook with a 13.3-inch LCD widescreen (1280 x 800 pixels), a 15.4-inch LCD widescreen (1440 x 900 pixels) or a 17-inch widescreen (1680 x 1050 pixels). Similarly, the Compaq Presario has a 15.4-inch display.

2. Better Computing and Battery Power

In the past years (early days of computers), two drawbacks of notebooks were their limited RAM, limited space on the hard drive, and short of course a very short battery life. Now those days are far gone ans things have changed, though, and laptops now have as much power under the hood as their computer desktop cousins. For example, the MacBook has 1GB of memory (configurable up to 4 GB) and a hard drive that’s configurable to 250GB. This means that your software will hum right along and you’ll be able to go through programs as quickly and as very much easily as you do on your desktop. Same applies to batteries, in today’s notebooks, batteries don’t heat up and don’t conk out as well.

3. Mobility

Are you used to pulling up a chair to your computer? Believe me that it makes much more sense to pull your computer up to your chair and not the other way round. Notebooks can be used at your desk, but you also have the option of bringing them to the spot where you’re most comfortable. Sometimes you’d like to browse the Web in the living room or catch up on your favorite sites before you go to bed. It even gets better and fascinating because you can take notebooks with wireless connectivity with you throughout your home, so you can check up on your mails or do your Internet shopping anytime and anywhere.

Notebooks also make a lot of sense for those who are on the go. We are in a modern world and trust me, technology is bringing us to the better part of life, unlike those days students can now take laptops to class and of course to the library, while on the other hand businesspeople can take them along while traveling. It even makes more sense to have a notebook while on vacation with WiFi so widely available to browse with. When you’re with the right notebook, it’s easy to take photos with your digital camera, upload them, and also mail them to your loved ones or probably share them on your social media network before you even get back home. You can also use it to write a personal vacation blog and include those pictures from your digital camera.

4. Privacy

A personal computer is nothing if it’s not personal, and no other form of computer can provide you the amount of privacy provided by notebooks as otherwise it become any electrical instrument which anyone can come around and touch. Well this can be a very important factor if you are working on a project whose every detail is invaluable for your organization and you don’t want anyone to have even a glimpse of it. In that case Laptop should always be your choice.While the death of desktops may not yet be upon us but it won’t be an understatement if we quote that their days are numbered as they in a way don’t offer what consumers today are looking in a computer.
