They can be used practically anywhere, then stored out of sight when not in use. Therefore, it is not surprising that their sales now far exceed desktop machines and that they are also becoming increasingly popular with the older generation of computer users. The friendly and practical approach of this book will help you to understand and get the most from your laptop PC in an easy and enjoyable way.
