Confused of Netbook and Notebook?

With the ever evolving technical world, computers are shrinking in size but still feature some of the most advanced operating systems. Today, people are required to travel around the world with their PC's in toll. But, one cannot move around with their desktops loaded on their backs. Thus, came the invention of laptops, also known as notebooks, that were easy to carry around, but expensive.
