Installing application programs

Your computer comes with several application programs already on the hard
disk. You’ll find these programs in either the Applications folder or the Apple
Extras folder on your hard disk.

A program called Software Highlights gives you easy access to the programs
in the Applications folder. To launch these programs and get tips on using
them, double-click the Software Highlights icon.

You’ll probably want to buy and install additional application programs. Refer
to the manuals you receive with your programs for instructions on installing
and using them.

In most cases, you install application programs onto your internal hard drive
from floppy disks that you receive as part of an application program package.
You need to connect an external floppy drive or dock your PowerBook in a
Duo Dock before you can install software from a floppy disk. The following
illustration shows how to insert a floppy disk in the floppy disk drive.

Insert metal end first, label side up.
