utility - A program used to manage system resources-memory, disk drives, or printers, for example. V - Volt(s). VAC - Volt(s) alternating current. VDC - Volt(s) direct current. VGA - Video graphics array. VGA and SVGA are video standards for video adapters with greater resolution and color display capabilities than previous standards. video adapter - The logical circuitry that provides (in combination with the monitor) your system's video capabilities. A video adapter may be integrated into the system board or may be an expansion card that plugs into an expansion slot. video memory - Most VGA and SVGA video adapters include memory chips in addition to your system's RAM. The amount of video memory installed primarily influences the number of colors that a program can display (with the appropriate video drivers and monitor capabilities). video resolution - Video resolution (800 x 600, for example) is expressed as the number of pixels across by the number of pixels up and down. To display a program at a specific graphics resolution, you must install the appropriate video drivers and your monitor must support the resolution. virtualization - The ability via software to share the resources of a single computer across multiple environments. A single physical system may appear to the user as multiple virtual systems able to host multiple operating systems. W - Watt(s). WH - Watt-hour(s). WMI - Windows Management Instrumentation provides CIM Object Manager services. ZIF - Zero insertion force. 9

utility
— A program used to manage system resources—memory, disk drives, or
printers, for example.
V
— Volt(s).
VAC
— Volt(s) alternating current.
VDC
— Volt(s) direct current.
VGA
— Video graphics array. VGA and SVGA are video standards for video adapters
with greater resolution and color display capabilities than previous standards.
video adapter
— The logical circuitry that provides (in combination with the monitor)
your system’s video capabilities. A video adapter may be integrated into the system
board or may be an expansion card that plugs into an expansion slot.
video memory
— Most VGA and SVGA video adapters include memory chips in
addition to your system’s RAM. The amount of video memory installed primarily
influences the number of colors that a program can display (with the appropriate video
drivers and monitor capabilities).
video resolution
— Video resolution (800 x 600, for example) is expressed as the
number of pixels across by the number of pixels up and down. To display a program at
a specific graphics resolution, you must install the appropriate video drivers and your
monitor must support the resolution.
virtualization
— The ability via software to share the resources of a single computer
across multiple environments. A single physical system may appear to the user as
multiple virtual systems able to host multiple operating systems.
W
— Watt(s).
WH
— Watt-hour(s).
WMI
— Windows Management Instrumentation provides CIM Object Manager
services.
ZIF
— Zero insertion force.
