Introduction
Innovative technology and ergonomic design make this notebook the ideal user-friendly and reliable
travel companion. The removable keyboard now provides even more flexibility in the use of your
notebook. Your operating system is pre-installed on the hard disk to facilitate the procedure when
you use your notebook for the first time.
The energy-saving processor and the energy-saving functions that can be configured allow you to
make the most effective use of the battery capacity. By using an additional battery instead of the
disk drive, you can double the notebook's mobile operation time.
Your notebook has 64 -512 MB of main memory installed, depending on the upgrade level. Data is
stored on an Enhanced-IDE hard disk drive. Your notebook is supplied with both a 3 1/2" floppy disk
drive and a CD-ROM drive. In addition, your notebook can be equipped with a DVD drive, a Zip

simultaneous operation of two Type I/II/III PC cards (a maximum of one Type III and Type II each).

gamepads, keyboard or mouse via the USB interface. The workstation has a fast IrDA interface for

program.
Certain system settings (e. g. screen display, energy saving functions) can be modified via various
key combinations while you are using the notebook.
Your notebook has a number of security features to ensure that no unauthorized persons can
access your data. As a result, access to your notebook is protected with a chipcard reader. The
