In this article we are going to introduce you to several touchscreen notebooks that are on the market today. Touchscreen notebooks are great because they give you the best combination between normal laptops and tablet PCs.
An interesting touchscreen notebook is the Fujitsu Life Book T4410. This touch screen notebook has a 12 inch screen that is big enough for you to really have all the fun you can get. It is pretty thin compared to other touchscreen netbooks. It weighs 4 pounds. With a simple swivel of the screen you will turn this Fujitsu into a tablet PC. The system costs 1200 dollars so it is quite expensive, but you do get a very good battery life and a stylus pen with an eraser with it.
Touchscreen Tablet Windows
A touch screen notebook you might prefer instead of the expensive Life Book is the awesome looking HP Touch Smart tx2z. It is slightly thicker than the Life Book and can be transformed (similarly to the Fujitsu model) into a pen tablet by swiveling the screen. The basics you will get if you buy the cheap 800 dollar version is a 2.2 GHz AMD Turion X2 dual-core processor, 2GB RAM of system memory, a 320GB hard drive and a DVD Multi disc burner. The laptop weighs around 5 pounds (it depends if you opt for the standard 6 cell or optional 8 cell battery). The great thing about this touchscreen laptop is that it comes at a great bargain price. A downside it has is that it has a very poor battery life.
One of the more expensive touch screen laptops available on the market is the Lenovo ThinkPad T400s. This touchscreen netbook costs no less than 2000 dollars. It weighs 4.5 pounds and has a 14 inch screen. It is the slimmest touch screen netbook you will find. This laptop will give you great performance, an accurate touch screen and SSD storage, but it will also be much too expensive for many pockets.
We have presented you 3 of the touchscreen notebooks that are available on the market today. You can choose to buy one of them or wait for even better models to appear. The future of laptops might stay in touch screen notebooks because they offer the best of two devices at once.
