Choosing a Good Laptop Computer to Buy

Doesn't it seem like there is thousands of companies selling laptops? Some cheap, expensive, used, and new? You're right! Laptops are in right now. Working professionals and students are using laptops everywhere they go, for personal and business use. Now that companies are seeing the demand for them, everyone is trying to get a piece of the pie, or should I say some of the money spent on these bad boys?

There are a few basics you need to know about buying laptops. One thing is for sure, space on your computer is very important, especially if it's for a business which will have more demanding needs. More space allows needed programs to run in order for your laptop to run properly. This space is called RAM. Bottom line? You can never have to much RAM, and if possible, don't go lower than 1 gigabyte of it.

Processors on laptops are extremely important as well considering they are the first thing to go and can't be upgraded later. Pentium processors are better because they were built for mobile laptops and they are easier on battery life. Have you heard the phrase, "Size does matter." Well in this case, it would absolutely be correct. If you are worried about spending to much on a laptop, you may want to set a budget before you start your shopping.

Size is important in deciding on a laptop because if you will be carrying your laptop around a lot, you may want to think about purchasing a lighter model. On the other hand, maybe toting your laptop is not the problem. You may not like for your wrists and fingers to be cramped up with to much pressure on them trying to type on a small laptop.
