Disclaimer (Battery Life)
Battery life may vary considerably depending on product model,
configuration, applications, power management settings and features
utilized, as well as the natural performance variations produced by the
design of individual components. Published battery life numbers are
achieved on select models and configurations tested by Toshiba at the
time of publication. Recharge time varies depending on usage. Battery
may not charge while computer is consuming full power. After a period of
time, the battery will lose its ability to perform at maximum capacity and will
need to be replaced. This is normal for all batteries. To purchase a new
battery pack, see the accessories information that shipped with your
computer.
RTC battery The internal RTC battery backs up the Real Time
Clock (RTC) and calendar.
AC adaptor The AC adaptor provides power to the system
and recharges the batteries when they are low.
It comes with a detachable power cord which will
either have a 2-pin or 3-pin plug enclosure.
Because it is universal, it can receive a range of
AC voltage from 100 to 240 volts; however,
the output current varies among different models.
Using the wrong model can damage your
computer. Refer to the AC adaptor section in
Chapter 2, The Grand Tour.

Disclaimer (HDD Drive Capacity)
1 Gigabyte (GB) means 1000 Ч 1000 Ч 1000 = 1,000,000,000 bytes using
powers of 10. The computer operating system, however, reports storage
capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of
1 GB = 1024 Ч 1024 Ч 1024 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore may
show less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if
the product includes one or more pre-installed operating systems, such as
Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications,
or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
