3 Budget laptops for casual tasks Let's clear things up a bit. Laptops are portable clamshell computers that are battery/AC operated. These days they are called, "Chromebook", "Netbook", "Notebook" and well simply laptops. These small form factor PCs usually run a version of a desktop operating system like Microsoft Windows but some can run cloud-based OSes like Google's ChromeOS or the feature-limited Windows S mode. I should also make it very clear that if you require a "Laptop" computer to do heavy work like animation, video/audio editing these listed here will not perform well unless it's very light versions of these tasks using simple software from the different app stores not anything like Adobe Premier Pro! College students use their laptops in the classrooms to take notes, for homework, general research, curricular and extracurricular activities. This has been the norm for at least the past 12

Traditional file storage In the 2000s and the very early 2010s, I could remember reaching for a blank DVD/CD or plugging in my portable USB hard drive to back up my music, photos, videos and documents. Yea what a time it was.

It meant that these devices were ready to accept our precious data in bulk transfer with just a couple clicks and drags of the mouse. It inspired us with that comforting feeling that even if our computer crashed or didn't turn on one day, that we could take these storage devices or discs to a friend or family member's PC or any other computer and still see all of our files on screen, safely nested on these p

The modern smartphone These days, many smartphones and tablets are capable of performing demanding tasks like providing high quality photo, audio and video features with rich displays at high resolutions. They are equipped with big, speedy on-board storage, expandable storage capabilities, advanced connectivity features with good multi-tasking and even the ability to play some graphically intensive 3D games. They provide these desirable functionalities to their users with very good efficiency at fast speeds. It comes as no surprise then that to keep up with such challenging performance in a small package, they need to be very multifaceted devices that make use of advanced software to drive innovative modern hardware. Basically they are full mini computers in the palms of our hands. As a result they suffer from many of the same challenges as their larger counterparts and should be maintained in a similar fashion as with our laptop or desktop PCs we use at home and at our workplaces. &qu
