 Do
I want a Used Laptop or a
Used Notebook and what's the
difference?
In the early
days of portable computing the term Notebook was used to
describe a small, ultra light weight laptop that typically
did not include an internal CD, DVD or floppy drive and
utilized a smaller than average LCD screen.
The term Laptop usually referred to a larger portable
that included a CD or DVD drive and often included a floppy
disk drive. In most portables the Laptop was equipped with a
larger LCD screen.
Thanks to major advances in technology in recent years,
you can now have the benefits of the light weight notebook
combined with the larger screen and internal CD, DVD, CD-RW
or even DVD-RW drives of the Laptop.
So, today the terms Notebook and
Laptop are
interchangeable and are generally used to refer to the
same type of portable computer.
