Moving the computer

Before moving your computer, even across the room, make
sure all disk activity has ended (the disk activity lights stop
glowing) and all external peripheral cables are disconnected.

Never pick up the computer by its display panel or by the back
(where the ports are located).

Although your notebook computer is built to withstand
reasonable shock and vibration, transport it in a carrying case
for long trips. You can purchase a carrying case from your
Toshiba dealer (To stay current on the most recent software
and hardware options for your computer, and for other
product information, be sure to regularly check the Toshiba
Web site at

).

as your desk. The easiest way to do this is to purchase an
optional PORT-Noteworthy
