Introduction

Options

You can add a number of options to make your computer even more

powerful and convenient to use. The following options are available:

If the processor's temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with

either setting, the computer will automatically shut down to prevent any

damage - in this instance all unsaved data in memory will be lost.

Hibernation Mode

This feature lets you turn off the power to the

computer without exiting from your software. The

contents of main memory are automatically

saved to the hard disk drive so that when you

next turn the power on again, you can continue

working right where you left off. Refer to the

Turning off the power

section in Chapter 3,

Getting Started

, for more details.

Suspend Mode

If you have to interrupt your work, you can use

this feature to allow you to turn off power to the

computer without exiting from your software.

Data is maintained in the computer's main

memory so that when you next turn on the power,

you can continue working right where you left off.

Memory expansion

1,024MB or 2,048MB memory module

(DDR2-533) can easily be installed in the computer.

Battery Pack

An additional battery pack can be purchased for

use as either a spare or replacement. Please

refer to Chapter 6,

Power and Power-up Modes

for futher information.

AC Adaptor

If you frequently use your computer at more than

one site, it may be convenient to purchase an

additional AC adaptor to be kept at each site in

order to remove the need to always carry the

adaptor with you.

USB FDD

The USB floppy diskette drive accommodates

either a 1.44MB or 720 KB floppy diskette

through connection to one of the computer's USB

ports. In use, please be aware that, while you

cannot format 720 KB floppy diskettes under

Linux, you are able to read and write to diskettes

that have already been formatted.

Security lock

A slot is available to attach a security cable to the

computer to deter theft.
