Big laptop vs. small laptop
I have a 15.4″ laptop. I couldn’t be happier when I used it, ‘cuz it was big and bright and fast. I could run any application I wanted on it. And watching movies was always an enjoyment. Such bright sharp screen! I always get people’s comments about how nice the screen is… That helps to boost my ego.
I was browsing the web a bit tonight and read this from a laptop review:
I sought a computer of this size (12.1 inch screen vs. the more mainstream 15 inch screens) after I watched two guys on a commercial flight. The guy on my left had the 15 inch screen and he had a very difficult time using his computer on the tray table (particularly after the person in front of him reclined their seat).
The guy on the right had the smaller planform 12 inch screen and he was in hog heaven. I thought it was a good object lesson.
Oh my god! It is so true!
Although I loooove my big baby, but after using it for 2 months, I realized I had a problem!
I am 5 feet tall, but that laptop is… so big for me! It’s nearly 7lbs by itself. And when I put it in a backpack for travel, my backpack becomes 30lbs heavy!!
Now I wish I had not envied big nice laptops. I did not think of this problem of “the need to be proportional to my size”…
*sigh
