As I know, laptops are portable computers that can be used anywhere anytime.

Notebooks on the other hand is also a portable computer, but can only be used where there are wall plugs. I might be wrong, but that's what i heard.

lol I don't think it really matters at all. Maybe some companies call them notebooks because they are smaller. Maybe some call it a notebook computer because it sounds more proffesional or because they are just what they are called, a computer with small size and holds stuff like a notebook, not necassarily games. I personally call them all laptops because they can sit on the top of your lap when you use them. I really don't think it matters.
