Quote:Laptops can generally be subdivided into three groups. On the one hand, there's the so-called thin-and-light or ultra-portable laptops which weigh in at sub-2.5kg. As the name suggests, portability is high on the priorities list, so much so power-sapping components are eschewed in favour of longer battery life. Intel's Centrino technology is often used as a base. The middle ground, which is reckoned to be 2.5kg-3.5kg, is populated by a vast number of laptops that carefully balance the criterias of price, power and portability. The 3Ps, if you will. Various mobile CPUs and semi-decent graphics adapters make them a good bet for most users. Then there's the heavyweight desktop-replacement models that focus on the very latest performance components. The price to pay for such power is, often, a base weight in excess of 4kg. Dell's goliath Inspiron 9100 springs (that's not an apt word, is it?) to mind.
