Since the 90's and the advent of the second millennium, progress in technology and virtual reality keeps reaching out to what we thought in that time as somewhat science fiction. Since computers existed, its advancement steadily moves forward and no sooner, we achieved another phase of technological hardware advancement in the computer world. We were able to create the laptop. The laptop computer is a phenomenal invention for it pushed the boundaries of what computer could be capable of performing.
Laptops are portable personal computers that is either run by a battery or simply plugged in a power source outlet. Like personal computers, the laptop has a mouse and a keyboard- for which they are the spoon and fork if they were a dining set. Laptop also has a monitor screen; a flat plastic surface that can be folded straight up or closed shut as the bottom lid is attached on a hinge together with the monitor surface.
For one thing, laptop's main advantage over its predecessor which is the personal computer is that a laptop unit is smaller. Because it is smaller a person owning the laptop unit will be able to carry it anywhere. It is simply like carrying a suitcase with a huge notebook inside it. Whichever the person may choose to bring would not matter, except underwater.
But one may postulate doubts saying, "smaller things often have limited performance or capabilities compared to their normal counter-part tools". On that respect, the premise is correct. A smaller dinghy is nothing compared to a ship. A water jug is nothing compared to a water dispenser. However, that practical logic does not apply to laptop units in relation to the personal computers. The laptop unit has the same performance, or even better.
Since the laptop is mobile and possess the same performance, it power source is limited. Yes, the laptop requires limited power and its duration is not unrestrained compared to personal computers. However, in the same respect, because it only requires battery as its source of power then the laptop unit is cost efficient. Charging the battery unit for an hour with an AC adapter, also called a converter, cost more than half less in the power consumption and electric bill invoice compared to computers plugged in the outlet and used for an hour.
It is very important to note that made laptops far more convenient than personal computers is that, since it is a mobile gadget, laptop units have no problem connecting anywhere online. With the emergence of Wifi system, laptops can gain instant access to internet connections. Also, laptops can be used anywhere.
Lastly, laptop units proved to be superior because it enables the person to be productive even especially in idle hours. With the laptop unit, busy professionals like business man and writers have no problem finishing their output deadline anywhere. Even though they are traveling in a cab, or taking the train; those precious hours of waiting to get home to finish their overtime can be done.
