does a laptop have the same amount of memory as a desktop?
How much memory your computer has depends on the size of the computer and how much memory you purchase, not whether it is a laptop or a desktop. Desktop computers tend to have more room for RAM than laptops because there is more physical space in the computer; however, it is entirely possible to have more memory on your laptop than on your desktop. It all depends on how much RAM you purchase and install on your computer.
Is a notebook the same as a regular computer?
The main difference between a laptop/notebook and desktop is the size and portability of the computer. They are both computers but a laptop is much more portable. Another difference to consider is how much disc and ram space you need for the intended use of the computer. Typically a desktop has more memory and is easier to add more hardware to. However, technology has improved drastically over the last few years so the differences between laptops/notebooks and desktops have dramatically decreased. Desktops are typically less expensive so if portability is not an issue, consider the price tag. I have a desktop that I rarely use and a laptop that I use most of the time. I also have another desktop that has my DSL modem installed and my router connected so I can run a wireless network in my house. The ability to run a wireless home network could also be a deciding factor. Hope this helps!
