What does it mean "laptop computer"? ("It was quickly reported that the information had come from the unannounced arrest of two al-Qaida suspects in Pakistan in July, much of it was contained on a laptop computer seized on 25 July following a 12-hour gun figth that ended with the capture of Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani...").

(Commonly just "laptop") A portable personal computer of a size suitable to rest comfortably on one's legs. A laptop is smaller than a "luggable" (portable, but not comfortably) but bigger than a "palmtop" (easily carried in one hand or a shirt pocket).

En català: ordinador portàtil
