Large, Medium, and Small LaptopThere are three main differences between a netbook and a laptop:

  • Netbooks are smaller and more portable than laptops. The screen size ranges from around eight to 11 inches, while a standard laptop will have a screen measuring around 15 inches.
  • Netbooks use lower powered processors, such as Intel’s Atom Processor, which are good at preserving battery life, but not so good at dealing with intensive applications such as video editing.
  • To save space, Netbooks do not have an optical drive, so you won’t be able to play CDs or DVDs on it. Almost all laptops come with an optical drive.
