Vote now.

EDIT: OK, laptop won by an Obama-like landslide.

So for now on, if you sell your laptop on FS/FT, don't call it a notebook.

This question arose as I looked through FS/FT for a laptop. Just to find out some posts list them as notebooks. It makes it really hard to find what I'm looking for.

As an authority on the subject, I say notebook.

No wait...laptop.

Applefags. When they're not calling them "Macbooks" :roll:

I call it a notebook sometimes and I am exclusively a PC user. Its in reference to the usage as a notetaker. I think laptop is far more common, probably because it is easier to pronounce.
