Turning on the Computer

Now you are ready to begin using your computer. To turn it on simply press

(pressing and holding the power button for longer than this will shut the com-

this feature.

Forced Off

If the system “hangs”
and the Ctrl + Alt + Del

power button for 4 sec-
onds, or longer, to
force the system to turn
itself off.
