A laptop can have many different uses, for basic web browsing and ultra-portability, a netbook is an inexpensive lightweight solution. The Samsung N150 has a 10 inch screen and weighs just 1.24Kg, its perfect to have on the sofa or out in the garden for a brief internet session. For more serious use, or even to replace an old desktop PC, laptops can be purchased with a full HD 18.4 inch screen and even include a Blu-Ray player for home entertainment.
A laptop can be taken out of the home and loaded with content from your camcorder or digital camera whilst away, and then the data moved to your home storage device upon your return. Free Wi-Fi is now available at many locations in the UK, so that you can continue to keep in touch when away from home. If you want to be totally self-sufficient 3G USB modems can be purchased which will allow you to access the internet wherever there is 3G coverage, even on the move.
