Choosing An Ultra-Portable Laptop For Your Computer Needs

By Elizabeth Lord

When Choosing a laptop, portability is often a key feature. When you are traveling with your laptop frequently, taking your laptop on planes and long drives makes weight (or lack of weight) extremely important. Things to consider when buying an ultra-portable laptop: 

• Price
• Features
• Weight of Additional Gear
• Battery life

You also have to watch out for mobile laptops that require extra gear. Best Reviewed Laptops

• Sony VAIO VGN-TX770P
• Toshiba Portege R200
• Averatec 1000
• Dell Latitude X1

The VAIO has a great battery life, which is important, but is also one of the most expensive ultra-portable laptops available.

It is the heaviest of the laptops listed here, weighing three and a half pounds, and has the largest hard drive at 80GB.

• CPU (Central Processing Unit)
• Hard Drive
• RAM (Random Active Memory)
• Screen Size
• Port Types
• Optical Drive (CD, CD-RW, & DVD-RW)
• Removable Media (like a camera memory card)
• Batteries
• Video Card
• Touch Sensitive Mouse Pad
• Wireless Capability

The CPU, or central processing unit, is not upgradeable in most laptops. A smaller screen is harder to read, however if it is too big it affects portability. If you have an older mouse that you intend to use with your laptop, remember to buy a USB adapter. If you need to backup a large amount of data, look for a laptop with a DVD-RW drive. Some laptops also come standard with a place to insert your media card directly into the computer for fast photo access. The batteries that come with laptops now are much alike. If your laptop uses a lot of power, look into buying a spare battery so that you can switch them out when the power drops too low.

Most laptops come with a touch sensitive mouse pad. Read More Info
