Worked example
What it makes
The starting criteria for a laptop comparison, with example scores for three unnamed options to show how the weighting works. Your Room uses your own options and scores.
| Criterion (weight) | Option A | Option B | Option C |
|---|---|---|---|
| Handles the work I do on it (5) | 5/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Price within my budget (5) | 3/5 | 5/5 | 4/5 |
| Battery life for my day (4) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Screen and keyboard comfort (4) | 3/5 | 4/5 | 2/5 |
| Weight and size for carrying (3) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Ports and connections I need (3) | 3/5 | 4/5 | 2/5 |
| Warranty and repair options (2) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 3/5 |
| Weighted score | 74.6/100 | 73.1/100 | 67.7/100 |
Weighted score = sum of (weight × score) ÷ sum of (weight × 5), out of 100.

Questions
About the Laptop Comparison Tool
Does WZRD rate these products?
No. You score each option on your own criteria; WZRD only does the weighted maths and lays out the result. Check prices and features on each vendor's own site, because they change often.
Why not compare specs directly?
Specs only matter for what you do. Weight the work you'll run, battery and carrying needs, then score each laptop on those.
