First there was the laptop, afaik. Now there are a zillion different versions of portable devices that can easily be made fun of. I'm on an old Dell Inspiron 6000 with a single core 1.73Ghz Intel Pentium M 740 90nm, 5400RPM HDD, 1GB ram... I've ordered a PATA SSD for this but haven't been able to install it, probably will have it installed by the end of the week. I am thinking of Windows 7 64 (have it already) As of late this laptop has been painfully slow. I've had to pull the battery several times because the thing just stopped, like 5 minutes no response type stop. The hope is that the PATA SSD will put some life back into this vacation/backup type of device. Right now I'm per-emptively thinking of an alternative route. I spent 80$ on the PATA SSD for this thing. Haven't opened it yet. If I return it I could put it towards a new laptop, notebook, netbook, notbook, chromebook, domebook, nottop, ultrabook, slimbook, bigbook, littlebook, stupidbook, more F*cking names for devices that essentially do the same thing ..book. So while they essentially do the same thing, I haven't been following the scene since there was a scene, I'm assuming there are little differences that put them in their own niche.
What are the differences?
EDIT: whoops, opened up the back of this laptop and found it had another 512mb of memory totaling 1Gb, yay. Free upgrade!
