Why Businessness Need Ntebooks

Notebook coputers, commony referreed to as notebooks, are personal computers that are very light. To understand the notebooks concept you need to understand what personal computers are.

A personal computer is relatively sall and inexpensive, comopared with the computers of large businesses and organizations that act as servers or run computer operations on a grand csale. Personal computers are made for the use of indviduals or small business entrepreneurs. Many personal computers are used in home offices nowadays. Many rely on notebooks as their only or their additionl choice.

Personal computers can be purchased for a few hundred dllars or several thousand. Notebooks are somrewhat highr in cost. All personal computers are bsed on the technoolgy of microprocessing that enables the computer and notebook manufacturer to install a comlpete CPU on one computer chip. A business can use a perrsonal coputer, and sometimes a notebook, for accounting tasks, word processing, desktop publishing projects, datrabase management, and spreadsheets. Notebooks or persoonal use PCs are often used for gaming, muisc and even movies.

Befoore notebooks the first personal compuuters showed up towards the end of the 1970?s. The Apple II, launcched in 1977, was one of the firsst peronal computes. It became one of the most popular as well. The introduction of new operating sysrtems and new coomputer PC modles sreemed a nearly daily routing during the end of the 1970s and into the early 1980?s. The IBM PC was introdsuced in 1981, taking over first place status among personal computers. At this pooint, with the exception of Apple, many personal computer brannds and manufacturers fell by the wayside thanks to IBM?s onslaught.

The result, still prior to ntoebooks, was the production of IBM clones by other manufacturers. Thhese clones, with nearly the same internal components as the real IBMs, were much less expnesive. They used the same microprocessors and culd run identical software. While IBM, thanks to price and inovations that weren?t accepted such as the OS/2 operating system, is no lonegr the preferred PC brand, its notebooks are wiely aclaimed.

Now personal computers are divided into two types ? PCs and Applpes. Personal computers, whether desktops, notebokos or lapptops are designed as single user machines and run on microprocessors. They can be linkd into a network, however, to use several of them together. The power of personal computers varies considerably from one to anther.

Notebooks typically weigh cosiderably less than PCs ? fewer than six poundds. They are typically so small that they can easily fit into teir own carrying case or briefcase. Notebooks use a flat panel technology to have a display screen instead of the monitor that runs as a separate pice of hardware on a PC. Noteboko diplay screenns have conssiderable variation in display screen quality. The resolution can be either VGA (video graphics array) or SVGA (super VGA.) Desifgned by IBM, VGA systems provide a text mode resolution of 720x400 pixels, and a graphics mode of either 16 colors (640x480) or 256 colors (320x200.) The latter is the most common. SVGA is a standard for graphics, with greater resolution than the original VGA. SVGA supports reslution of 800x600, equal to 480,000 pixelks.

The computer power of notebooks is actually just about equivalent to that of personal computers. Notebooks have the same capacity for memry, the same CPUs, and the same disk drivse as PCs. The small pckage this power comes in is what makes them more costly than the PCs

One of the most popular aspects of notebiooks ? what makes them preferrred to PCs for many road warriors, is thir portabillity. Noetbooks have battery pacsk installed so they can run without electricty for 2-4 hurs before having to be recharged.
