How Laptops have Evolved in the Past Decade



Laptops have come a long way in the past 10 years. A decade ago, it was only the very wealthy who could afford to buy laptop computers. They were large devices that cost a few thousand dollars. The appeal of the laptop computer was that they were portable. People used them for business purposes as they could now travel with them when they traveled for business.

In the past 10 years, the laptop has evolved from a very expensive, large and slow moving computer to a fast moving, small and slim machine that is easy to use and affordable. Just as the internet and other computer technology have evolved in the past 10 years, so has the laptop computer.

Today, a laptop has faster speed, is able to not only go online, but go online at high speed and also is capable of doing this without wires. Most laptop computers today have wireless technology built right in and all laptop computers that are made today are made to have wireless technology if the user chooses. You can take your laptop to the local internet café and just go online, it is easy but something that was only a dream 10 years ago.

Laptops have also become thinner and lighter in the past decade. As a matter of fact, laptops continue to keep getting thinner and lighter. There are some that are the size of an actual school notebook and are lightweight and just as thin. They have LCD screens and keyboards have improved and are easier to use than ever. There are laptops that have screens that are able to turn around and have touch technology, which means that you can touch the screen with a stylus and operate the computer in this manner.

The mouse for the laptop has also improved dramatically in the past 10 years. The mouse is no longer a little ball that moves around the center of the laptop keyboard but operates simply by touch alone. Over the past decade, laptop computer technology has improved dramatically, making you wonder where it will go in the next decade.
