Vocabulary Laptop computers

Memory: is a fast memory is responsible for storing information temporarily required for the computer work. If there is little RAM, the computer uses the hard disk to simulate it but it will slow the computer. Currently you can install them to 4 gigabytes (GB) of RAM.

  PCMCIA Support: integrates a standard slot for use on laptops, to connect a lot of devices, including digital card readers, wireless network cards (SD, xD memory, Smart Media memory, etc..) etc.

Hard Drive: is a magnetic storage device, in which the largest amount of computer information is stored, and that includes the (Microsoft ® Windows, Linux or any version of Apple ® Mac OS), applications ("Office OS , compressed files, music and video player, games, etc..) and user-generated files (text, spreadsheets, compressed music, videos, etc..). currently exceed 320 GB capacity.

SSDs: as an alternative to hard disk can also have a solid state drive, which significantly reduces the heat almost, vibration and allows a considerable increase in the yield of L / E data. The capacity ranges up to 64 G capacity.

Video card: it is special circuitry and chip makers to accelerate graphics on screen by a graphics processor called GPU and RAM. Basically Laptop have very good video card as it is not possible to add new capabilities; NVidia ® or GE-Force ®: two leading brands that can be integrated are handled.

Optical Disc Drives: these drives: CD-ROM readers, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM readers recorders or DVD-ROM.

For magnetic disk drives: a bay in which usually a 3.5 floppy disk drive installed "Currently not included because the market launch of the USB memory replaced floppy disks

Laptop computers and Netbooks

A laptop is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. They are also sometimes called notebook computers or notebooks. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, including work, education, and personal multimedia.

A laptop combines the components and inputs as a desktop computer; including display, speakers, keyboard, and pointing device (such as a touchpad), into a single device. Most modern-day laptop computers also have a webcam and a mic (microphone) pre-installed.[citation needed] A laptop can be powered either from a rechargeable battery, or by mains electricity via an AC adapter. Laptops are a diverse category of devices, and other more specific terms, such as ultrabooks or netbooks, refer to specialist types of laptop which have been optimized for certain uses. Hardware specifications change vastly between these classifications, forgoing greater and greater degrees of processing power to reduce heat emissions.

As the personal computer (PC) became feasible in the 1971, the idea of a portable personal computer followed. A "personal, portable information manipulator" was imagined by Alan Kay at Xerox PARC in 1968, and described in his 1972 paper as the "Dynabook".The IBM Special Computer APL Machine Portable (SCAMP), was demonstrated in 1973. This prototype was based on the IBM PALM processor (Put All Logic in Microcode or 128 bit).The IBM 5100, the first commercially available portable computer, appeared in September 1975, and was based on the SCAMP prototype.As 8-bit CPU machines became widely accepted, the number of portables increased rapidly. The Osborne 1, released in 1981, used the Zilog Z80 and weighed 23.6 pounds (10.7 kg). It had no battery, a 5 in (13 cm) CRT screen, and dual 5.25 in (13.3 cm) single-density floppy drives. In the same year the first laptop-sized portable computer, the Epson HX-20, was announced. The Epson had a LCD screen, a rechargeable battery, and a calculator-size printer in a 1.6 kg (3.5 lb) chassis. Both Tandy/RadioShack and HP also produced portable computers of varying designs during this period
