    Hi folks! I just wanted to know how the height of any laptop is measured. Do companies measure it with or without the rubber stands? And If I would want to measure my computers height where should I begin? I want to know this because I want to compare the height of my laptop versus the height of other laptops. *** When posting measurements please add both inches and millimeters please!

    Pictures or a video can help out a lot since by only descriptions I would misunderstand things.

    Typically "feet" are not included. It'll probably be a lot more efficient for you to search the internet for other reviews or datasheets of laptops that already have the numbers you're interested in, though.
