Does the Size of a Laptop Really Matter?
The question in notebook computers has become, “Does computer portability really matter or is it more important to have an all powerful computer that allows you to fit every piece of software and save as many projects as possible on your productivity machine?” Another issue may be whether the small sizes are more concerning or if the light-weight portability is the focal matter. I think the availability of different types of laptops now lets us really personalize our productivity machines into something that works for us and doesn’t always have to be standard for all.
The production release of the brand new macbookair by Apple has really given us a choice with the size and what kind of computer we take around with us daily. At less than 3 pounds and wafer thin, we don’t have to strain our shoulders every time we pick it up. It has a 13 inch flat panel and a normal keyboard. Why wouldn’t I be interested? This is the very attribute I have been calling for.
When I first observed the commercial for the MacBook Air with a slim, easy to carry laptop computer coming out of that manila envelope, I was simply stunned. Now, that’s what I’ve been seeking for so long. Now it doesn’t have to be a major accomplishment to take my portable computer with me any longer! No extra bag that can weigh likely as much as the portable computer, no more heavy lifting, no longer taking up so much extra room! What a joy!
The frequently asked question of whether size is relevant is in front of us now and my answer, when it comes to a tiny portable notebook computer is a booming, “yes, Yes, YES!” Size does matter and so does weight. For me and my mobile computer smaller is as good as it gets.
