Laptop versus Tablet

You have made the decision to buy a new computer. Many years back, your choice was limited. But today, you can buy the age-old personal computer, or  the trusty laptop computer, or the portable palmtop computer, or the flashy smartphone or the commanding tablet, remember the ten commandments came via tablet, not PC :)

And in each category there's a lot to choose from.
  • PC - tower or desktop, HP or Dell, Microsoft or Mac etc
  • Laptop - 17" or 11", HP or Toshiba etc
  • Smartphones - android or iPhone, blackberry or iPhone etc
Now enter the tablet: the new computer on the block. Tablets like the iPad and the Galaxy tab are the latest tech fads.

So which is better, a Tablet or a laptop?

Simply put, it all depends on your usage, your needs and your means. If you create content more than you consume content then a laptop is better for you. If you travel a lot consuming content i.e. you are the boss and the reports come to you, not from you, then the tablet will be more ideal. But the clincher is the means!
Right now, for a marginally 'low' spec computer, the tablet computer is relatively expensive as compared to the laptop.

You decide.
