overlay for fast numeric data entry or for cursor
and page control. It also includes two keys that

activates the Start menu and the other
functions as the secondary mouse button. The
computer’s keyboard supports software that uses
a 101- or 102-key enhanced keyboard. See

An external 3 ½" diskette drive module
accommodates both 1.44 MB double-sided, high-
density, double-track (2HD) and 720 KB double-
sided, double-density, double-track (2DD) disks.
AC adaptor The universal AC adaptor provides power to the
system and recharges the batteries when they
are low. It comes with a detachable power cord.
Because it is universal, it can receive a range of

the output current varies among different models.
Using the wrong model can damage your
computer. See the AC adaptor section in
Chapter 2, The Grand Tour .

superior performance. The screens can be set at
a wide range of viewing angles for maximum
comfort and readability.
Sound system A Sound Blaster™ Pro™ and Windows Sound
System (WSS) compatible sound system gives
your computer multimedia capability. The sound
system is equipped with a speaker, internal
microphone, volume control knob and
headphone jack.
