1. Introducing the OmniBook • Identifying the Parts of the OmniBook. • Learning About Windows. • Safety Information. • Working in Comfort. Keep in mind the following features as you learn about your OmniBook. • The OmniBook’s modular design provides maximum expandability without compromising portability. • The high-performance Pentium® CPU with MMX™ technology and enhanced IDE hard drive provide you with the processing power needed to handle complex graphics and large sound files. • Two PC Card slots give you the ability to use standard PC Cards, such as a LAN adapter or memory cards.
• The floppy disk drive in the plug-in module bay can be replaced with a CD-ROM drive, DVD drive, LS-120 drive, or second battery. • You can use the floppy disk drive outside the module bay by connecting it to the parallel port using the optional HP F1473A external floppy disk drive cable. • Battery operating time can be doubled when you carry an additional primary battery to be installed when the first runs down, or when you install a second battery in the plug-in module bay.
