Laptop is a small computer that you can carry with you. It is a portable device that can be used to perform a variety of tasks, from word processing and emailing to playing games and watching movies.
Laptops are designed to be lightweight, compact and easy to use. They are different from desktop computers because they have no internal components such as floppy drives, CD-ROM drives or even keyboards. All of these components are external devices that plug into the laptop via USB ports.
Laptops come in many different sizes, shapes, colours and prices. The most common laptops have 15” screens but there are smaller ones available too. Some have 17” screens while others have even larger ones - up to 20”!
There are also “netbooks” which are smaller than regular laptops but still very powerful machines; they are ideal for people who want something small enough to take travelling but still want the power of a full computer system when they get back home again!
