Whois & Analysis for notebookcheck.net

A laptop, often called a notebook or "notebook computer", is a small, portable with a "clamshell" form factor, an alphanumeric keyboard on the lower part of the "clamshell" and a thin LCD or LED computer screen on the upper portion, which is opened up to use the computer.

Laptops are folded shut for transportation, and thus are suitable for mobile use.

Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, as of 2014, there is often no longer any difference.

Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, Internet surfing using sites such as YouTube and for personal multimedia and home computer use.

Netbook is a generic name given to a category of small, lightweight, legacy-free, and inexpensive laptop computers that were introduced in 2007.

Netbooks compete in the same market segment as tablet computers and Chromebooks (a variation on the portable network computer).

A tablet computer, commonly shortened to tablet, is a thin, flat mobile computer with a touch screen display, which is usually in color, processing circuitry, and a rechargeable battery in a single device.

Tablets often come equipped with sensors, including digital cameras, a microphone, and an accelerometer so images on screens are always displayed upright.

The touchscreen display uses the recognition of finger or stylus gestures to replace the mouse, trackpad and keyboard used in laptops.

The Internet is the global system of interconnected computer networks that use the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to link devices worldwide.

It is a network of networks that consists of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless, and optical networking technologies.

The Internet carries an extensive range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext documents and applications of the World Wide Web (WWW), electronic mail, telephony, and peer-to-peer networks for file sharing.

News is a mobile app and news aggregator developed by Apple Inc., for its operating system iOS, and launched with the release of iOS 9.

It is the successor to the Newsstand app included in previous versions of iOS.

The app was announced at Apple's WWDC 2015 developer conference.

It was released alongside the iOS 9 release on September 16, 2015, for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.

At launch, the app was only available to users in the United States, but the app has since become available to users in Australia and the United Kingdom as well with the release of iOS 9.1 on October 21, 2015.

During the keynote address at WWDC 2016, it was revealed that with the forthcoming iOS 10 update the News app will undergo new icon and app redesigns along with an improved For You section organized by topics.

Furthermore, it was announced that there would be support for paid subscriptions for certain news sources and publishers as well as an opt-in system for breaking news notifications and email on top news stories.
