WHAT DOES PALMTOP MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Palmtop PC

A Palmtop PC is an about pocket calculator-sized, battery-powered PC in a horizontal clamshell design with integrated keyboard and display. It can be used like a subnotebook, but is light enough to be comfortably used handheld as well. Most Palmtop PCs are small enough to be stored in a user's shirt or jacket pocket. Palmtop PCs distinguish from other palmtop computers by utilizing a mostly IBM-compatible PC architecture and BIOS as well as an Intel-compatible x86 processor. Most such devices were DOS-based, with DOS stored in ROM. While many Palmtop PCs came with a number of PDA and office applications pre-installed in ROM, most of them could also run generic, off-the-shelf PC software with no or little modifications. Some could also run other operating systems such as GEOS, MINIX 2.0, Windows 1.0-3.0, or Linux. Most Palmtop PCs were based on a static hardware design for low power consumption and instant-on/off without a need to reboot. Depending on the model, the battery could power the device from several hours up to several days while running, or between a week and a year in standby mode.
