A notebook, commonly known as laptop, is a smaller version of a desktop computer. But its advantage is that all components are presented in attractive version, a box with a digital screen portable. Typically, a notebook weighs between 1 and 6 kg, according to the manufacturer, materials used, and other factors may be involved.
Usually, notebooks powered by a battery, an AC / DC. This adapter charges the battery while providing power to the computer while it is used. Some models of notebooks have a battery backup to supply power when the principal is unavailable, or where there are no sources of energy.
As personal computers, notebooks are capable of doing the same work as a desktop computer. Are less powerful (speaking of processing power, memory capacity cupboards, etc) desktop computers that are in the same price category. The reason for this is that most of the parts used in laptops are miniaturized to fit inside the cabinet of the notebook.
The notebooks usually have an LCD (liquid crystal display) that closes on a touchpad (or trackpad) for the mouse, and keyboard. But these same accessories can be connected externally if the user so wishes.

History notebook
Osborne - 1981
The first commercially available laptop (notebook name was not appropriate at the time, they were much larger than the versions currently available) was Osborne in 1981. Although very heavy, with a tiny CRT monitor, led to a revolutionary effect on business and industrial sectors.
The ability to take work home had a big impact. An improved version of the laptop or notebook came in 1983. The handset manufactured by Compaq was the first product of this brand and technology was a computer version popularly known as the IBM personal computer. Had an even greater success than previous notebooks.

GRiD Compass 1101 - 1982
But the first notebook was the GRiD Compass 1101, released in 1982 by Bill Moggridge. Format was introduced where the notebook LCD monitor is closed over the keyboard. The notebook came within a magnesium cabinet, and could run on batteries.
The first successful commercial notebooks were SupersPort series of Zenith Data Systems (ZDS), which competed with several other companies such as IBM, Toshiba and Compaq to close a deal with the U.S. Armed Forces for a contract to supply 200,000 units, in 1987. This made the laptop became popular and gets into the business, with prices increasingly popular among ordinary consumers.
Weaknesses notebooks
Although the notebook appears to be the genius powerful motive for these times, also has its flaws. The main ones are listed below:
Fragile components:
The components of a notebook are the miniature components of a desktop computer, and hence it is more fragile. The miniaturization process also affects the price difference of a notebook over a desktop computer.
Durability:
The mobility of these devices makes the structure of the integrated component of the notebooks is more prone to shock and physical damage to a desktop computer. And the worst part is that the value of a new LCD screen or a damaged motherboard exceed the value of the whole team!
Performance:
In general, desktop PCs are high performance machines when compared to notebooks of the same price. Although this changes with the advance of technology, the difference is noticeable. While recognizing that the value of a notebook is not so much for performance and mobility options.
After all this, it is easy to see that notebooks today are still a novelty. New Era makes the desktop PC is coming to an end.
