Notebook Computers - The Small-Electronic Gadgets of Tomorrow Available Today

Most people today have a desktop computer, laptop or notebook computer in their houses. Notebooks can offer an advantage to the desktop and even some of the earlier laptop computers.

Listed are five reasons why you should consider a notebook computer.

1) Mobility

Most desktop computers are set away in the corner of a room, away from the family. Notebooks can not only be used on a desk, but also anywhere you can use a laptop. If you've had a long day and want to stretch out on the couch or in a comfortable chair, you can relax while you do your evening surfing or on-line shopping. Notebooks also make sense for those who are out and about. If you're a student, your notebook can go with you to class or the library, and if you travel for business, you can take it along with you. Why not take it on the family vacation? With the wide availability of WiFi, you can take the photos from
your digital camera, upload to your notebook and email your adventures to loved ones before you get back home.

2) Better Displays

The size of computer notebook screens has so improved that you'll have a difficult time telling the difference between the notebook and desktop computer screens. The new Sony VAIO Lifestyle VGN-P688E/N has an 8.0" screen with 1600 X 768 pixels. Sounds small, but this little notebook packs a lot into a smaller package.

3) Lighter Weight

This notebook is extremely easy on the back and shoulders. About the size of an envelope and Weighing approximately 1.4lbs, you can take it just about anywhere with ease.

4) Better Computing and Battery Power

Many older laptops had limited RAM, small hard drives, and very short battery lives. The new Sony has 2GB, DDR2 SDRAM/533MHz, plus much, much more. There is plenty of capability to move through programs just like you would on your desktop computer, and the estimated Battery Life is up to 4.0 hours.

5) More Features

Using a smaller yet powerful processor, there are more features that can be added to notebooks. The VAIO has a built-in camera and microphone, and integrated Stereo to name just a few.
