A computerized portable device that I would find helpful in the legal field is a tablet such as the " Microsoft Surface Pro". There are many laptops and tablets to choose from these days. When purchasing these products, you need to keep these 3 things in mind. Price, Performance, and compatibility. Good- quality pc's are usually priced in the same range as an equivalent Mac. Performance is something that differentiates with each individual. Most people switch to Mac because they are tired of their slow Windows PC. However, if you purchase a quality computer, it will not be any slower than a Mac. Compatibility should also be a big deal when purchasing a portable legal device, due to incompatible software and hardware.

The Windows Surface Pro tablet has many features that you may like or learn to like. It is thin, light, quiet, and has a very long battery life. The Surface Pro also allows you to utilize the functionality of a tablet while supporting the powerful performance and features of a laptop. These are a lot of the qualities that you are looking for in a portable device that will be used for legal work. I will say personally, I use all windows products.
