Laptop is an incorrect term because men shouldn't carry it on their lap because its bad for their sperm count. Or so the research says. Notebook is the term of these days.
As such, the term 'nettop' is also meaningless. How do you mean net? Network? As if a laptop doesn't have networking? Or a mobile phone?
The term 'handtop' does describe that you have a device in your hands. The device is small, yet powerful. I think handtop is a nice blend which -while not superaccurately- at least attempts to combine 2 concepts ('handheld' and 'laptop' or 'nettop').
BTW, 2 or 3 letter acronyms are very powerful.
And WNT is in not related to CP/M; (MS)DOS is. WNT has its own microkernel designed by DEC VMS engineers.
