Notebook or Laptop?

The word of "Notebook" is familiar for us. I am sure, all people know this word. And i am sure if all of you also know the word of "laptop". And, whats the difference between them? The answer is nothing. There is no different between them. Notebook and laptop is the same thing.

Now i will not talk about the technical specification about this device. I just wanna write about laptop and notebook words. Yes, about those two words, neither the meaning nor the technical specification. Notebook and laptop have the same meaning, that's a PC with smaller size, more practical, and you can bring it anywhere.

In the Computer World, we know three kinds of computer, desktop, laptop, and palmtop. Desktop is a computer that is placed in a "desk", laptop is a computer that is placed in a "lap", and palmtop is a computer that is placed in a "palm". Nowadays, people do not always use laptop in their "lap". Maybe they wanna place it in desk, bed, chair, or somewhere else. That is why, the word of "laptop" is not relevant anymore. Then, the word "notebook" replace it, because this device's form and function are similar to notebook.

And what my purpose to write this article? Actually i don't have any purpose. But, we know now why there are some people say laptop, and some people say notebook. Now, when you are in arguing with your friend about this silly world, you know the history. Thanks
