The Convenience of Small Laptops
Whether you are a small businessman or a college student, small laptops are practical and convenient for all your needs. Hauling a large computer to classes or traveling with one on business trips just doesn’t work.
Fortunately most computer brands now offer several portable as well as durable models to choose from. These super-compact, ultra thin small laptops are designed with the business traveler in mind. Computer technology has created smaller hardware making it possible for the smaller computer to be just as techno packed as a larger desktop.
These small laptops are also great for students to have access to all their class work no matter where they are. A student could take their laptop to the library, coffee house or friends home or dorm room and be able to get all their assignments completed.
When traveling on an airplane or commuter train these small laptops are able to be opened with ease. On your commute to work or special business meeting you would be able to complete tasks and be ready for whatever hits you as you enter the workplace.
When shopping for a small laptop find one that is also light enough for travel. The four best laptop computers that come to the top of the list when I consider small laptops are described for you below:
ASUS Eee PC 904HA
For the economically challenged businessman or student this is the perfect choice with a price tag of just under $400. The ASUS Eee comes with a 160GP hard drive and several USB ports. On the down side it does not come with a DVD drive.
HP Mini (AKA 2113)
This machine has been custom designed with the traveler in mind. These small laptops are listed at approximately $750. These computers have a HP3D server hard drive, and a chasis made of titanium. It also has an aluminum shell as well as a keyboard that is moisture resistant. The MacAir is the only laptop on the market that is able to beat this model’s thinness.
Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-S1001X
The Toshiba is probably one of the sturdiest and most durable small laptops. This computer is priced in the neighborhood of $800. It has the ability to charge USB devices like an iPod even while shut down but plugged into an outlet.
Apple MacBook MB061LL/B
This Apple MacBook has made our list of small laptops even though it is the largest, heaviest and not quite as suitable for taking on business trips. This computer is for the laptop crowd that has a need for a bigger screen. With its nearly $970 price tag, it is not quite as affordable as the others. One important feature for our laptop travelers is that it can find and connect to Wi-Fi in almost any location.
Now you have an idea of what type small laptops are currently on the market. Before you make a final decision, read some laptop reviews, do some price comparisons online or look in the local paper. Talk to someone you know who may already own a small, portable computer to see how satisfied they are with the performance and travel-ability.
