A laptop is the same as a desktop computer, but portable. Laptops can come with a Windows Operating System, or a Mac OS.

However, the iPad is an Apple product which is very similar to a MacBook, iPhone, and iPod Touch. The difference is, it is much smaller than a MacBook laptop, and it is more bigger than an iPhone and iPod Touch iDevice.

iPads can come with 3G or WiFi, unlike the iPod Touch. Also, you can text to phones with the iPad.

The major difference between and iPad and a laptop is the size, an iPad is a lot smaller and more compact than any laptop or netbook on the market today. iPad also runs on microprocessors and runs altra clear LED lights.

Another major difference is the fact that the iPad runs "Apps" normal laptops can only access stuff that is on the internet and cannot access and interact with the applications like an iPad can.

actually the differance between the ipad and a laptop is, laptops you can multi-task on and a ipad you can't. The ipad is thinner and you can download as many apps as it allows you to. A laptop you upgrade as were a ipad you can't. The simialatries are they are both portable, but for people not so strong or even small they can not carry a laptop around all day. As were the ipad is much more lighter then a laptop.

laptops have potentially larger screens, laptops have tactile keyboards, laptops generally will have more horsepower though that may not be all that important to you, the ipad would generally have longer battery life, its smaller.

An apple iPad is much more useful than a computer, you can interact with the iPad itself and take notes on it by hand, with a pencil, even textbooks are now available on iPads. They are truly genius devices that are very amazing.
