I read an article in PC World comparing Notebooks to Laptops. Which do you prefer or think is better? why?

I honestly don't know the difference.

Agreed.

[Andrew McGivery]

Apparently there IS a difference. Heres an article for a read on the differences.

lol @ the Dell propaganda at the bottom of that article.

Oh, I always referred to "notebooks" as "netbooks" because they were compact. At least the Acer ePC's.

Depends on what you'll be doing with it.

[Andrew McGivery]

if you refer to a prostitute as a hooker, it doesn't change the fact that it is a prostitute.

And in this analogy, it REALLY doesn't matter what you'll be doing with it. xD

I personally prefer laptops. I would probably break a notebook before a laptop and the battery life eventually dwindles down to nothing so that shouldn't matter.

i have laptop, i think its very good, dont know about notebook thought, think its not so big diffrence !

[Scorpian]

I have my desktop and no real need for anything else, so I don't care. I can spend that money for a laptop on parts with which I can upgrade my desktop.

Meh, according to that article i have a notebook. But my 13" screen does fine, considering i have a 21" LCD connected to it. And the battery life lasts a good 5 hours, so I'm not complaining.

It was probably more expensive than two dell laptops put together though, so i don't really have anything i can complain about.
