The display panel functions the same as a desktop monitor. The Notebook PC uses an
active matrix TFT LCD, which provides excellent viewing like that of desktop monitors.
Unlike desktop monitors, the LCD panel does not produce any radiation or flickering, so it
is easier on the eyes. Use a soft cloth without chemical liquids (use plain water if necessary)
to clean the display panel.
