Which type of computer is best to use for medical billing and coding?
Asked by tripeace
I am starting a home based medical billing business. I want a laptop for my business. My sales agent is convinced that a netbook will do the trick, but I am not so sure. Will I be able to perform billing tasks sucessfully with a laptop or netbook? Which is best? Are there any other accessories that I will need?

This question just staggers the mind, but here goes . . . . . First off why do you want a laptop for a HOME based business. A laptop costs more upfront and if it does break it will cost a lot more to fix. You can get a better, faster, desktop system with more storage for less money. You will also need a good printer, get a laser printer not a ink jet printer. The cost of Ink for the ink jet will kill you over time.

Go w/ a laptop. You should also have a full desktop as well. Use the laptop for back up. Netbooks don't have enoug memory, USB ports, etc.
