Laptops !

Some of the first laptop Pc's ,had the following problems:

Too Big
Too Heavy No colour Display

Battery Life too short

Mouse not easily usable

Only a floppy drive

Hard disk too small

Poor Operating Systems

Expensive

A lot of these problems have now been overcome by manufactures with the advancement in technology these devices are now popular .

Some are even as powerful and flexible as a desktop systems the only disadvantage's are

Batteries still go down although they last longer
desirable to the thief and a lot are stolen as they are too easy to carry off !
Due there small size now .Manufactures have to be very careful about heat from new more powerful processors
Power consumption by colour displays , new processors and wireless communications can be very high and drain batteries quick
Not easily user upgradeable or repairable
