This is what happens when you never read recreationally. My advice, start reading books and newspapers and your spelling will improve. Also, I'm not sure "I have a laptop" is something I would have written into my resume.

This is why old people shouldn't be given computers. UGH.

Maybe this person is Arab; Arabs pronounce the P as a B, and they tend to write things the way they pronounce it :P

If the opposite of a laptop is a desktop and if you put your desktop upon a desk, where do you place your labtop? On top of a lab? That makes absolutely no sense.

Unless the resume was handwritten, it must have been typed up on a computer. I typed labtop in a Word document. The red line underneath it informed me it was misspelled. I right-clicked the word and it offered to correct it to laptop. At that point I probably would have second guessed my original spelling. I do agree with everyone else, I don't understand how the OP has never seen the word. What does the OP think a laptop is when they come across it in an article or see an advertisement on television? I feel like people who are terrible at spelling do very little reading and writing on their own.

I can understand not knowing how something is really spelled even when you hear it a lot. For example, when I was younger for years I thought light saber was lifesaver, lol. However, I can't imagine how you would never see the word laptop somewhere in an advertisement or something. You must not pay much attention to anything at all, so I have to conclude that YDI.

Congratulations, you're an idiot!

Furthermore a better term would be,"Notebook", as really thats what it was designed as originally! So yep you fail go BACK to the unemployment line LOL

..............go back to school

Hahaha forgive me for laughing...it's like my brother calling Valentines day "Valentimes day" Haha! XD
