A laptop is a computer which is easy to carry around. Its user can fold the
laptop along its hinge for carrying. The laptop was created mainly for this
particular reason. Computer parts were scaled to smaller size so this could
happen.
The first laptop was invented in 1979 by British Designer BillL Moggridge.
In 1982, two computer designers from Microsoft, Kazuhiko Nishi and Bill
Gates, started their discussion concerning a new portable computer. The
main thing about the computer was a new LCD technology. A year later the
company launched its TRS-80 Model 100, which was a computer that
looked pretty much like the laptops we know today.
The development of laptops continued with various upgrades and
additional functions added. Laptops have a lot of advantages like:
-People can carry them anywhere, whether office or home.
-They can be used in a smaller space than an ordinary personal computer.
At the same time portable computers have several negative points like:
-Price is higher
-Computer thefts became easier.
-While used in the car they can cause car accidents.
-They break more easily than desktop computers.
