Nature Of A Laptop

I'm going to leave you to ponder a while on that while I commence to make my point clear.
  Laptops are delicate machines unlike desktops that have real hard protection all over them.A laptop is very prone to scratches which can quickly mar that shiny plastic ornaments that beautify it and with just a few weeks handling a brand new laptop can look like many years old that is if you don't treat it like an egg.



A laptop can be easily stepped on and sustain a fracture and get  its liquid crystal element splash 'beautifully' across its screen so that you need to buy and fix a new one.And that can easily happen when you  hold it under arm in a crowded street. it may get a good jolly jostle by one real busy passerby.



A laptop hate dust literally. its one of its worst enemy I don't know why but sooner your laptop finds itself around dusts of any kind the sooner it starts acting real funny like clogging your laptop's cooling unit that's the fan which will lead to some freezing moments which you really don't like  sometimes you might want to press a single key on the keyboard and suddenly it types out a thousand characters dust and grains at work
  

sharing flash drives harphazardly or any removable media can expose  your laptop to real viral, trojan ,worm infection which might render it useless to you. it catches it real fast and before you know it you'll be be hitch hiking for a solution that might not be that easy to procure


laptops are very prone to shocks of all kind especially the memory because of its vulnerability to Electro Static discharge  so, as an added protection most companies integrate special shock proof devices that are unfortunately  not perfectly protective so you need to provide extra shock proof devices for added safety like using voltage surge protectors


Do you you know that your laptop can get forgetful suddenly and start telling you those technical jargons you often see on a blue screen and that means in advance that you need backup plan in background to keep your files safe.I  don't trust mine enough either so there's backup.
