Owning a laptop is same as telling owning a tablet pc/notebook?

To be honest, I thought just the same like you. Some people make differentiation but I have never be able to find what's the difference between those. Maybe they're the same, and the only different is just how you spell them.
By the way, I also really want to know the difference between those terms, so if you have got the answer (whether they're the same or they're different), you have to tell me. LOL. Good luck finding your answer

I think it just they refer the same thing except with the tablet PC. A tablet pc is a kind of a laptop that has this features that you can able to write in the screen with a stylus.So whether you call them a laptop or a notebook is just they same It doesn't really matter at all because you referring the same thing. But when are asked what kind of laptop/notebook you have and you got a tablet PC just say to them you have I use a Tablet PC.

yes it is the same thing, i think all of that is the same

I think, laptops and notebooks are the same. But they are different with tablet pc. Generically, tablet pc refers to a laptop equipped with touch screen to operate the computer with stylus.

Laptop and notebooks comes together hand in hand. The two terms are used for more than two decades now. They essentially refer to just one thing, the portable version of our personal computer. Also our desktop computer can be referred either as microcomputer, personal computer(PC), desktop computer, or just plain "computer". If you want, for personal depiction, you can further divide the two terms with these descriptions: a laptop can be any size of portable computer that is equally the size of the area of your lap when placing the portable computer in front of you, while the notebook computer is literally the size of a large notebook that you can place also in your lap or more specifically in cramped places like your study table with very little space for an average PC to be placed upon. Netbook also falls to the category of laptops/notebooks. Presently, if you say laptop/notebook today it depicts a normal size to large size portable PCs, the one we're used to. While Netbook are the ultra mini-notebooks the size of an average shoulder bag or simply the size of your notes. They're called netbooks because they mainly function as your simple gateway to the internet and not for gaming, and graphics intensive applications, which requires laptops, or better yet, a full-pledged desktop computer.
