Accessories
Gateway offers accessories that can help you make the most of using your
notebook.
Batteries and automobile/airplane power adapters
If you run your notebook on battery power for extended periods, you may
want to buy an additional battery so that you can swap batteries when
necessary.
With an automobile/airplane power adapter, you can save battery power by
plugging your notebook into an automobile cigarette lighter or an airplane
in-flight power receptacle.
Carrying cases
Gateway has large-capacity carrying cases if you need additional space for
accessories or supplies.
External drive module
Your notebook has an optional external drive bay that lets you use a removable
drive such as a diskette drive or CD/DVD drive. To change drives, you need
to replace the drive module in the drive bay.
Port replicator
Although you can attach external devices directly to your notebook, a port
replicator lets you make all of those connections at once. When you travel
with your notebook, you merely disconnect from the port replicator instead
of unplugging all the external devices.
A port replicator also provides additional ports and other expansion features
not included with your notebook. For more information, see “Using the Port
Replicator” on page 147
External devices
You can attach external devices such as a keyboard, mouse, printer, or monitor
to your notebook or docking station.
Memory
Large programs, such as multimedia games or graphics programs, use a lot of
memory. If your programs are running more slowly than you think they
should, try adding more memory. For more information, see “Replacing the
memory” on page 142.
