I am going to follow you around and post responses as dumb as that, if you say that a game has bad graphics, I will respond with Are there legal graphics minimums for a nice looking game Actually, I'm not gonna stalk you... Aren't you lucky. Anyway, if you're removing all size limit for laptops then you have to add in each Ipod touch or Iphone that Apple sells, they are just an even smaller version of a netbook after all |
What? I don't speak nonsense well, but I'll try to respond.
First of all, all of those words have definitions because.... they have definitions.
My point is, a netbook is a small computer, with a built-in monitor, and comes with a OS (Like Windows) and a keyboard. It's a laptop. They are smaller than most, with low specs, but they are certainly laptops. Just like tablets are laptops. You can't proclaim something to be whatever you want because in your own warped mind, you've set parameters that the world must follow. "A SmartCar isn't a car! It's too small! Ha! It's... I dunno, but not a car!" My point is a netbook clearly fulfills the criteria of being a laptop unless a new defintion of laptop arises.
An iPod touch is clearly an MP3 player with many options. But not a fully featured OS with a physical keyboard. Ditto the iPhone. (and no, a keyboard that works on a touchscreen doesn't count) They are tiny and very limited compared to any laptop(including netbooks).
I'm not removing size limits, but clearly you've got some sort of dimensions in your own mind (hardly official) as to what makes a computer a laptop. And as the article quoted clearly shows, industry analysts disagree with you.
