conjunction with other keys to change their functions. To use control keys, press and
hold the control key while pressing another key. For example, “Press
<Ctrl>+ <C> ”
means to hold down the <Ctrl> key and type the letter <C> .
(3) Windows keys (Windows Start Menu Key) – Use this key to activate the Start
Menu of Windows.
(4) Shortcut/Application key – provides quick access to shortcut menus. (This key acts
like a right mouse button.)
(5) Cursor Control keys – Cursor control keys let you position the cursor on the screen
where you want. On the screen, the cursor is a blinking underline, block, or vertical
bar depending on the application.
(6) Typewriter keys – Typewriter keys (also called alphanumeric keys) are used to enter
text and characters. Keys with blue print on them behave differently when combined
with control keys or the
<Fn> key.
(7) Numeric Keypad – Pressing <NumLock> on the keyboard activates the embedded
numeric keypad numbers and functions printed in blue on top of the keys. When you
press
<NumLock> again, the keys revert to their normal functions as typewriter keys.

Integrated Microphone
This allows you to instantly record voice annotations (normally saved as WAV files) and later
attached them to documents and presentation using the notebook integrated audio system and
application software. Since the notebook also supports full-duplex audio capabilities, you can
talk to the microphone and at the same time listen to others talk when connected to a
speakerphone modem, Internet live chat, or video conferencing.
