How to shop for a laptop
Are you looking for a new laptop computer to run Windows? You're probably among the millions of people wondering where to begin. Laptops (also called notebook computers) come in many shapes, designs, and sizes, with a bewildering array of prices and technical specifications. If you aren’t sure how to choose the best laptop for your needs, here’s some information to help you make the right purchase.
Start by taking a close look at how you'll use your laptop. Don’t focus on technical specifications before you’ve asked yourself some basic questions:
•
Is it important for your laptop to be lightweight?
•
Is it important for your laptop to have a large screen?
•
How often will you carry around your laptop?
•
Will you travel a lot with your laptop?
•
How often will you use the laptop when it’s running on battery power instead of plugged in?
•
Will you use your laptop for demanding tasks, such as playing the latest 3D games or editing video?
•
How much are you willing to spend?

After answering these questions, some people decide they don’t need a laptop after all, and buy a desktop computer instead. This article is about how to shop for a laptop, but the first step in that process is to ask yourself, “Is a laptop really the best computer for me?”
If your budget is tight and you don’t plan to carry your computer around, consider a desktop computer. The price and performance gap is narrowing between laptop and desktop computers, but you usually get more speed, power, and expandability for your money when you buy a desktop computer.
The ergonomics of using a desktop computer tend to be better, too. It’s common to see laptop users sitting hunched for hours over a cramped keyboard squinting at a small screen. Then they wonder why their necks hurt or they feel tired after working for only a short time. With a desktop computer, it’s easier to sit up straight and use a large, flat-panel display positioned at eye level.
