I remember when the “laptop” computer was an expensive luxury in our business; it made it out of the storeroom every now and then when one of us had an assignment on the road or had to take notes at the courthouse. Not the case any longer.

Notebook computers have become very competitive — comparing price to features like storage, speed and enhanced video display. Battery life has improved drastically and the device itself has slimmed down in size and weight and many businesses are taking notice of the new notebook.
