Laptop or Tablet

[telectrix]

I would go with a touch screen labtop that has a swival screen that will allow you to fold it flat and use it like a tablet - best of both worlds then!

Yep they are cheap and as long as you put all your business stuff in a business folder buy a £10 memory stick and use a free MS utility called briefcase that syncs the info with the laptop so when it stops working or gets stolen its no big deal

Na sorry not a techno buff everything I buy I look after and only change it if I have to my fluke 71 is 25 years old and my analogue clamp meter would have been the same but for some fool not me who dropped it but as I have said before I started working with computers 28 years ago via BMS systems and trust them as far as I can throw them hence why I back up my business stuff at the end of every week and when I hear about people who lose all their stuff because the computer has either been stolen,dropped, or a cup of tea has been spilt all over it and they have lost everything well more fool you so send the £10 on a memory stick or £40 on a small hardrive

Friend of mine is about to launch an app aimed at trademen to do billing etc from a tablet. It's called Powered Now (Powered Now), might be worth watching for many on here.
