| Tips
for buying Laptops
First and most important thing that you must know
is what exactly you wanted to do with a laptop.
Write down your entire requirement and seek the
help of a computer literate and this is the most
practical solution for a better selection. A Pentium
4 with at least a 1GHz processor, 256
Kb of RAM, 40 GB of hard drive space and with
a CD writer would be the best choice for a beginner
for general use.
If you are to use the laptop for regular purposes,
go in for 40 GB of hard disk space, whereas if
you need a performance laptop (one which is used
for handling graphics, or playing games) go for
at least 60 GB or 80 GB of hard disk space. Keep
in mind that higher GB also means heavier and
costlier.
Screen size is a very important feature to consider
when purchasing a laptop. The most popular screen
size on the lower end is the 12.1" display
at 800x600 resolutions (SVGA).
Most 13.3", 14.1", 15", 15.4"
and 17"screens have 1024x768 resolutions.
A larger screen costs more but makes it easier
to use for Web surfing and more visual programs.

There
are two types of batteries available viz. Lithium
Ion (Li-Ion) or Lithium Polymer
(Li-Polymer). Li-Polymer batteries are smaller
and have a longer life. They usually are expensive
as compared to the Li-Ion batteries, but hold
more of a charge. They can power the laptop approximately
8 hours, whereas a Li-Ion battery can power only
for 2-3 hours.
