That depends. Once your batteries go low you'll need to recharge them. UK power is 240 volts 50 hertz; US power is 120 volts 60 hertz. Check the label on your power adaptor. If it says something like: Input power 100-240V 1.5A 50-60Hz then you're good to go. If not, or it only says input power 120V 60 Hz, then you'll need another power charger. Check your laptop mfr website or do a google search - many companies sell dual-voltage units. You will still need a mains adapter, as the US 3-prong wall socket is nothing like the UK 3-prong wall socket. Those plug adaptors are available in travel shops and some airport shopping areas. ;-)

What do I do if I'm bored to death on my laptop?
Well, at least do the work, first, then ask the teacher if you can get ahead in class so that when the real time comes, you don't have to with the rest of the class, or you can work on something else from another class.
Which best brand lap top is cheap and best?
dell
Purchased this laptop from a retail computer shop a little while ago and have had a few weeks to play with it.
Overall, I feel that this is a solid product. I purchased this when my Dell Mini 9, (now discontinued) bit the dust, and overall feel that this newer netbook model is a vast improvement. As I am a college student who uses this product primarily for taking notes in class, I must say that the keyboard is ideal, and I have no problem keeping up with the lecture almost word-for-word. This is a large improvement over my previous netbook, which had a very congested keyboard along with keys swapped from their normal positions. The trackpad and mouse keys are pretty stellar also, although I must admit the pad itself could stand be a little larger, this is not a deal-breaker however. Bundled Windows 7 software seemed to work adequately well, however I did get rid of the massive amount of bloatware that comes with any piece of HP hardware. Soon after purchasing, I installed Macintosh OS X, which I greatly prefer.
Only caveat I can think of is the power-switch located on the side of the device can be tricky sometimes for people that are avid nail-biters, (like myself). A power-button would have been preferred, but it's not the end of the world.
One thing of note is that this page says that the RAM limit is 1GB, however this is not true. I was able to swap out my old 2GB DDR2 stick from my bricked Mini 9 and it was immediately recognized and functioned properly. Installation was fairly painless, although HP is very stingy on instructions on how to do it. If you are tech-savvy whatsoever it will not be an obstacle.
Happily recommended!

When was the first apple mac laptop invented?
Interesting Facts:
Though often thought of as the first mac laptop, The "Mac Portable" (released in 1989) was not the first mobile computer with a Mac OS. The "DynaMac" released in 1987 used a Mac Plus ROM in a laptop case. The $4,000 to $8,000, 18 to 24 pound laptops were a repackaged Mac Plus or SE with a 9" 640x400 backlit amber electroluminescent or gas plasma screen. Dynamic acted as an official Value Added Reseller for Apple. Like other laptops of the day, there was no integrated pointing device (none needed for DOS!), so users had to attach an external mouse. So the Mac Portable was rather innovative in that it included a trackball.

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.
