How Do I Choose between a Netbook or Laptop?

Netbooks are low-profile but very compact and lightweight portable computers with functions such as Internet access, email sending and receiving, and instant messaging (IM), and can smoothly play streaming media and music.

The current netbook categories in the market are:

Asus Eee PC;

Acer Aspire One;

Dell Inspiron Mini 9, VYE Mini-V, OLPCXO-1, One A110;

HP Mini 1000, HP Mini 2140, Skytone Alpha-400, CloudBook, Classmate PC, HP Mini 110;

LGX110;

MSIWind PC;

GIGABYTEM912 series / T1028 series / S1024 / M1022 series;

Lenovo IdeaPad S9 / IdeaPad S10 / IdeaPad S10E / IdeaPad S10-2 / IdeaPad S12;

SONYVAIO VGN-P13GH / VAIO VGN-P15G;

Moblin project (Intel Mobile Internet Device) provides support for device types;

The dead Palm Foleo can also be classified as a netbook ^[2]

Difference between netbooks and laptops

1. Netbooks and ordinary notebooks follow the same standards in terms of hardware structure, so don't worry about whether certain software can be used. As long as it is software that can be used on ordinary laptops, netbooks can also be installed and used.

2. The biggest difference between netbooks and ordinary laptops is the screen. The screen resolution of netbooks is extremely low, generally 1024 * 600. The worst laptops are even worse at 1366 * 768, and higher resolutions are 1600 * 900, 1920 * 1080 and other resolutions. Don't underestimate this difference. There will be a lot of trouble in specific use.

With the evolution of the intelligent era, new portable products led by tablet PCs are seriously squeezing the living space of netbooks, which has also led many PC manufacturers to retreat. Succeed

a) There are many high-speed signals, small settling and holding time margins, and strict timing control;

b) Due to the many layers of the PCB, the signal rate is high, and the design of the stack and the parameter plane is more particular.

a) Through the pre-PCB simulation, set the constraint specifications and topology structure such as layout and routing, determine the allowable spacing of the traces, and determine the size and position of the matching resistor;

b) Design the laminated structure with polar software and theory, and calculate the line width and line spacing according to the impedance requirements.

Netbook method one

With the continuous emergence of netbook models on the market, choosing a suitable netbook has become an urgent need for many consumers. Because netbooks have inherited the characteristics of small size, light weight, wireless Internet access, no optical drive, etc., netbooks should be targeted elsewhere.

First of all, the stability of the product should be taken into consideration.

Second, pay attention to the heat dissipation of the machine. Because small books are often used at any time, if the machine is not good in heat dissipation, it is easy to cause problems when it is installed and taken away after each use. In severe cases, it may even explode due to overheating.

Finally, we must pay attention to the usability of the machine. After all, the size of netbooks is very limited, so a relatively comfortable operation is still necessary. After all, they are not bought as furnishings, but they can be carried around and used at any time.

In addition, relevant additional hardware parameters such as Bluetooth and wireless network standards must be taken into account. These are necessary conditions for purchasing netbooks ^[5] .

Netbook method two

First of all, before you buy a computer, you must first go to the website to see its price and dealer quote, select one or two models and understand their configuration. If you have friends who know the computer, you can bring them with you to buy . And to bring some detection tools:

Master Lu: It can detect the hard disk usage time, and it has comprehensive functions. It can be known at the first test.

CPU-Z: The Most Comprehensive Chip Inspection Tool

EVEREST: Supports practical functions such as overclock detection and display detection;

Second, when the market arrives, there will be many so-called shopping guides recommending their products to take you to their booths, it is best not to follow them, at least this is the first step that may be cheated. As for the black shopping guides, they do not care whether the product is qualified after you buy it or not, whether they are fooled or not, they just earn this money and take a customer to buy their product in the past, they will have a commission, which is why it is called "black". Wherever possible, go to a larger dealer or brand store.

Third, if there are books you like, don't listen to dealers saying that this computer is not good here, what is bad is not good in their mouths except for the products they want to dispose of. In short, if someone strongly recommends another computer, and then immediately say that the one you are looking for has serious shortcomings, etc., then you need to pay attention to it.

Fourth, do not pay the so-called unpacking fee first.

Fifth, check the packaging after the notebook to see if the seal is complete and whether it is an unopened new product

Sixth, ask for a formal invoice.
