A Notebook and a laptops is the same thing, just different name for a portable computer. Netbooks are little different and so are tablets but as mentioned these are two names, one old and one new for the same thing.

Yeah they dont have the drives it's a pain. I bought my 7 year old one....you cant play any dvds have to copy them to a flash drive that sucks. Makes it complicated when you need to load something by cd....or if you need to run a back up cd.. You have to buy a external dvd drive that connects to usb. WHen you think about it...you spend 350-400 for a network you can get a fully fuctional laptop for 500$ so if it was me I get a laptop....
