I ask this, not because I need a specific answer. Do a search on the questions, for "labtop"... You will see.

For those thinking I am "hearing things" I have answered 2 questions with the word "labtop" in them. These are written, not spoken...

Labtop?
That's a first for me.
Although I'm just old as this link shows it has meaning amongst the young people out there.

I have never once in my life seen or heard anyone say "labtops" until this question was asked.

Probably they made a mistake written LABTOP instead of laptop.
Nevertheless today we use different terms to almost every thing related to computers. reboot. instead of turn out,etc.
I think they should be called the way they should. PORTABLES
