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.
There are several popular brand name laptop computers that offer small laptops with all the necessary power and programs for most users needs. Their smaller size is able to fit in a backpack along with books and paperwork or in a briefcase full of files.
As a student you would be able study in any location and have quick and easy access to all your school files. You could go home for a weekend or holiday whenever you want and not miss out on valuable study time.
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.
There are a few key questions to ask yourself before shopping for one of these small laptops. What will you primarily use it for? How much memory or speed will you need? Is it important for you to have a large screen and beefy speakers? I have listed a few best laptops below as an example of what is out there and how much they cost.
ASUS Eee PC 904HA
This computer made the list of small laptops because it is the best value at $350. The price makes it affordable for the college student as well as the small business owner. It is a little heavier than the other small laptops and does not have a DVD drive. It does have a 160GB hard drive and three USB ports, so you can store movies easily.
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
If you are looking for small laptops that are heavy duty this is the one. Also in the $800 range it may be the strongest and when plugged into an energy source (even when turned off) it can charge any USB item.
Apple MacBook MB061LL/B
Apple has always been the top name in computers and it is the same when it comes to small laptops. This MacBook lists for a little under $1000 making it the priciest in this group. It is also bigger and weighs more. A major concern for most laptop travelers is being able to get online. This laptop is able to find a Wi-Fi connection literally anywhere.
As with any large purchase it is important to comparison shop, read laptop computer reviews, and get advice from the computer expert in your family (every family has one!)
