Benefits of Portable PCs

  • Greater productivity.  People can work where and when required, whether at home or at remote locations. This means that often less travel is required (commuting) or where mobility is required for example travelling where work can still be carried out on public transport.
  • Portability can also be major advantage for choosing a laptop over a desktop computer. Portability means that a laptop can be used virtually anywhere, not only at home and in the office.
  • Flexibility.  Workers will have greater flexibility as to where and when they work.
  • Immediacy.  Using a laptop often means having instant access to information, whether in the form of saved files or from the Internet. Immediacy allows better collaboration between people.
  • Size.  Laptop computers are useful in areas where space is at a premium plus they can be folded and stored when not in use.
  • Power & Cost Savings. Laptop’s are more power-efficient than a desktop. This is beneficial for businesses (which may run hundreds of personal computers, when you consider multiple savings) and homes where there might be a computer running constantly. The savings made can be potentially considerable.
