mobile microprocessor incorporating the latest processor technology.
An internal, Level 1 (L1) cache consisting of 64 kilobytes (KBs) of high-speed
memory that resides in the processor core. The microprocessor has either a
128-KB or 256-KB (integrated) Level 2 (L2) cache.

memory (SDRAM) system memory, with support for a maximum of 512 MB.

drive, CD-ROM drive, DVD-ROM drive (on computers running Microsoft
®
Windows ® 98 Second Edition), Zip drive, LS-120 drive, second battery, or a
second hard-disk drive.
NOTE: Your computer was shipped with a diskette drive in the media bay. For
information on removing the diskette drive and installing a different device in the
bay, see "Using the Media Bay" in Chapter 2.
Because the Microsoft Windows NT ® operating system does not support DVD
