Using the keyboard
Your notebook features a full-size keyboard that functions the
same as a desktop computer keyboard. Many of the keys have
been assigned alternate functions, including shortcut keys for
Windows, function keys for specific system operations, and
the Num Lock keys for the numeric keypad.
Key types
The keyboard has several different types of keys. Some keys
perform specific actions when pressed alone and other
actions when pressed in combination with another key.
Tip
You can attach an external keyboard to the notebook or optional port
replicator using a USB port. You do not need to shut down the notebook to
connect a USB keyboard.
