1. Introducing the OmniBook
Identifying the Parts of the OmniBook.
Learning About Windows.
Safety Information.
Working in Comfort.
Keep in mind the following features as you learn about your OmniBook.
The OmniBook’s modular design provides maximum expandability without
compromising portability.
The high-performance Pentium® CPU with MMX™ technology and enhanced
IDE hard drive provide you with the processing power needed to handle complex
graphics and large sound files.
Two PC Card slots give you the ability to use standard
PC Cards,
such as a LAN
adapter and memory cards.
The floppy disk drive in the
plug-in module bay
can be replaced with a CD-ROM
drive, a Zip drive, or a secondary battery.
You can use the floppy disk drive outside the module bay by connecting it to the
parallel port using the optional HP F1380A external floppy disk drive cable.
Battery operating time can be doubled when you carry an additional primary
battery to be installed when the first runs down, or when you install a secondary
battery in the plug-in module bay.
