# Laptops (Overview)

### Benefits

* **M365**: ability to access and use Microsoft 365 easily.
* **Tasks**: Good for education purposes, creating CVs and looking for jobs.

### Limitations

* **Size**: Too large to easily carry around. 
* **Connectivity**: No options for a SIM card so you need another connectivity option. This could be home wi-fi, a mi-fi device or using a phone as a hotspot.  

### Considerations

* Ideally operating Windows 10 or above.
* The need for M365, which is a paid subscription, or the free app versions. 
* Google (G-Suite) have all the same apps as Microsoft e.g. **Docs**, **Sheets**, **Slides**, which are free and very similar to M365 applications. 
* Consider connectivity options e.g. a mi-fi device.
