Powerful and versatile, the new laptops have the upper hand
They work at supersonic speed, handle large amounts of data, turn into an office terminal on work trips and transform playing into an all-encompassing experience. There is an ideal state-of-the-art laptop for each user.
Portable, powerful and tactile, it is the dominant computer among consumers. High-definition screens are the norm; 3D with glasses are sweeping us away. The processors can handle that and more. Sophisticated technology encased in luxurious finishes, in hitherto impossible shapes, colours and textures. Learn to choose the most suitable one for your lifestyle.
- For working from home. The desktop computer mini-towers are a thing of the past. Integration and miniaturisation are the norm, to the point of integrating the computer in the screen, as in Apple's top range. Huge high-definition touch screens that can replace the television in an apartment. When the need for calculations is paramount and operating large amounts of data is a requirement, as in architecture or design programmes, a very powerful, fast, multi-core processor is indispensable. Speed is complemented with high RAM memory and cache.
- For outings and travel. The sale of laptops has amply surpassed that of desktop computers. Increasingly powerful, lightweight and handsome. Ultra-portable, large-screen, high-definition laptops prevail. Desktop power with a 15-inch screen and 1.5 kilos in weight. Make sure you don't need the functions that are sacrificed to lightness. Tablets have displaced netbooks to a highly specific niche of use, where lightness is equal in importance to the use of Office. Look for a long-life battery and connectivity. Connection to mobile 3G networks and Wi-Fi are indispensable.
- For multimedia. Games jump out of the screen in the 3D computers now bursting on to the stage. With glasses. Powerful, quality graphic and sound cards are a must. Multimedia devices are transformed into a home entertainment hub. When a good set of external speakers is added, they replace the best sound system. Laptops are starting to win the battle against multimedia devices.
