Laptop Types Shopping for a laptop? Note that laptops are classified into types, or categories. Here's a quick look at some of the most popular groupings. Desktop replacement. These laptops pack the power of a larger desktop PC, yet in a more portable form factor.
Mainstream. General users who need an all-purpose notebook without a lot of bells and whistles should consider a mainstream model. Ultra portable. If portability is key, look for an ultra-portable model that weighs only a few pounds. Netbooks. As small as a paperback book, netbooks are extremely easy to tote around, although they don't always have the same power as their bigger brothers. Tablet PCs. Take digital notes using a tablet PC's stylus. Convertible tablets look a lot like a traditional laptop with a twistable screen.
