Well obviously you had to use a computer to ask this question. A computer makes it easier to search for and find information. Computers have also revolutionized the way we communicate. They help us to store and play music and videos. Now they are making all of this possible on cell phones and such, but computers are usually faster and they obviously provide a larger screen and the computer can multitask. The quality and efficiency is overall better than any phone (unless of coarse you have an outdated computer or dial-up internet or both.) The computer also allows you to play large video games (Counter Strike, Runescape, etc.)

A Laptop/Computer has two types of memories. 1> Hard Disk- Which is a memory with higher storage capacity ranging from 40GB to 500GB easily available right now. This is a permanent memory( will not be erased when you shut down your laptop) will help you store more of your files, songs, videos etc and depending on your need you may select a configuration . I personally prefer 250GB + and buying a portable hard disk of 500GB 2> RAM: Or Rapid Access Memory. The processor uses this as a intermediate storage location or desk area between the hard disk since RAM is much faster to access than the disk( RAM is a temporary memory and automatically erased on shutdown or rather we can say session specific). The bigger the RAM, better the performance, more simultaneous applications can be run with ease! Currently 2GB is the norm but I would suggest 4GB with expandable capacity upto 8GB. This is one area where one should not compromise.
