If You’re a Researcher or Student
On-line services such as CompuServe, America Online and Prod-
igy, and access to the Internet provide almost endless resources for
conducting professional research.
In addition, you can purchase dictionaries, and other reference
materials on disk or CD-ROM for your own personal library.
Understanding the Information on the Box
In addition to listing the features of the product on the box, the
manufacturer usually prints the system requirements.
Below is an actual example of the system requirements for a
graphics program. Your computer meets all of these requirements.
The following sections explain each of the characteristics above.
Windows Compatibility
The Satellite 200 Series computer comes with Microsoft
Windows 95. Windows 95 can run programs written for Windows
(version 3.0 or later), Windows for Workgroups (all versions), and
MS-DOS. When possible, use programs written specifically for
Windows 95.
MPC Compatibility
The Multimedia Personal Computer (MPC-2) specification was
designed to ensure compatibility between multimedia programs
and hardware. Your computer is MPC-compliant, allowing you to
use all multimedia programs that are themselves MPC-compliant.

Microsoft Windows 95, 8 MB of RAM, VGA
video adapter, mouse or other pointing device, 55 MB of free hard disk space.
