Automobile/airplane power adapters
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.
Batteries
If you run your notebook on battery power for extended
periods, you may want to buy an additional battery so you
can swap batteries when necessary. See
“Changing the
battery” on page 49 for more information about using an
additional battery.
Carrying cases
Gateway has large-capacity carrying cases if you need
additional space for accessories or supplies.
Hard drives
If you want to increase your internal storage space, try
replacing your existing hard drive with a larger drive. See
“Replacing the hard drive kit” on page 86 for more
information.
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. See
“Adding or replacing memory modules” on
page 83 for more information.
Printers
You can attach almost any type of printer to your notebook.
The most common types are inkjet and laser printers, which
print in color or black and white.
Inkjet printers and cartridges are relatively inexpensive, but
they are slower than laser printers. Using an inkjet color
printer, you can print pictures, banners, and greeting cards,
as well as documents.
Laser printers and cartridges are more expensive, but they
print much faster than inkjet printers. Laser printers are better
than inkjet printers when you are printing large documents.
