Introducing The Omnibook - HP OMNIBOOK 3000 User Handbook Manual

1. Introducing the OmniBook

This chapter introduces the OmniBook and helps you get familiar with your new
computer. It covers
Identifying the Parts of the OmniBook.
Powering the computer (ac, battery, and on/off).
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 or memory cards.
The floppy disk drive module in the plug-in module bay can be replaced with a CD-
ROM drive module, giving you access to a greater variety of graphics and
multimedia software. You can use the floppy disk drive outside the module bay using
the external floppy disk drive cable. This cable allows you to connect the floppy disk
drive to the parallel port when the module bay is occupied.
