Ok so we all know what a Laptop is but I often see ads promoting Notebooks and they look just the same as Laptops to me.
Now someone mentioned a Netbook in another community discussion.
Can anyone explain the differences between a Laptop, Notebook and a Netbook please?

 Notebooks tend to be slightly larger, not much, by like an inch or two.  When the big companies started making notebooks they were trying to make something that could bridge the gap between personal computers (PCs) and laptops.  The only thing though, is that notebooks don't bridge much since you can still get a laptop to be as powerful as a notebook lol

Both have the same power and features, but one costs a bit more.  The laptop is more like the 45" TV and the notebook is more like the 65" TV

 The newer ones may not have solid states, so if you're in the market for a netbook be sure to find one with a solid state.  You may pay a few extra bucks for the solid state, but it's worth it. You can pretty much do all the same things on a netbook that you could on a laptop or notebook.  The standard sizes of a netbook are around 7" to 10" which is much smaller than the smaller laptops and notebooks that are a minimum of 13" but the standard is around 15".
				A notebook and Laptop are very similar.  Laptops are more for going out to business calls and you need access to the internet so you bring it.  I use my laptop for everything and I love it lol :D  Notebooks tend to be slightly larger, not much, by like an inch or two.

A netbook was built to be a smaller version of a laptop or notebook.  It doesn't have the same power as a common notebook or laptop, but because it's smaller it's preferred for people who travel a lot since it's a very mobile computer.  A lot of netbooks come standard with solid states, which is extremely nice :D  The newer ones may not have solid states, so if you're in the market for a netbook be sure to find one with a solid state.

And another different I saw between laptop and notebook and netbook. All laptops has existing CD/DVD room but you will not see any notebook or netbook has existing DVD/CD room.
Regards by Ajlancer Hi ?Lynne thanks for your question. To me Laptop, notebook and netbook almost same. I do not see much different all of them. But, there has some basic different according to user response. And as per as I know laptop convenient for all basic works and notebook for carry to anywhere simply for visiting purpose. Because, it is size more small than laptop computer. And netbook usually made for interment friendly. Some netbook only build by android for using internet more conveniently. And another different I saw between laptop and notebook and netbook. All laptops has existing CD/DVD room but you will not see any notebook or netbook has existing DVD/CD room. Regards by Ajlancer
