Actually no diff- they are interchangeable terms.

Hi,
Notebooks and Laptops are portable computers but there is a minor difference between them.
Laptop: A portable computer small enough to use on one's lap.
Notebook: A light, portable computer that is generally thinner than a laptop.
Generally what this means is that things like CD/DVD drives would be external on a Notebook, e.g. connected via USB as opposed to being integrated.
