what is a notebook?
So you’re wondering what a notebook is… Well, there are two correct answers to that question! The first type, and one that still commonly exists today, is basically a pad of paper that is bound on one side to make a little book! The second kind, has now become more or less interchangeable with the laptop. At they most basic level they can perform a similar function of storing information, but that is about where the similarities end.
Paper Notebook:
A paper notebook is several sheets of paper, oftentimes ruled for writing purposes and bound into a small book to hold them together. While much less technical than a laptop they are still incredibly popular and widely used. Electronic notebooks are constantly advancing and becoming more and more powerful each year!
Computer Notebook:
Notebook computers were initially introduced in 1988 to allow for a small, lightweight personal computer that could easily fit in a briefcase and be used remotely. At their introduction a lot of power and computing ability was sacrificed for the size. Fast forward to today and the modern notebook is essentially the same as a laptop (which has come down in size significantly). The modern version is quite a powerful device and found in nearly every office around nowadays!
