When you are choosing for a portable computer, you have to consider a lot of various factors. If you are spending most of your life traveling, you will surely want a small and light sub-notebook, but for other applications such parameters as the size of the display and overall performance may be more important, making you choose from among larger models. Large notebooks are also “colder” because it is easier to take heat away from the components in a large case. And what’s very important about full-size notebooks is that they are still portable. As opposed to desktop computers, you can carry them about, even though spending more effort than with ultra-portable models.
