Getting Familiar with your Computer
PC Card Slot
There is a type II/I CardBus PC Card slot found on the right panel
of the computer. This slot accepts a credit-card-sized card that
enhances the usability and expandability of the computer.
PC Cards (formerly PCMCIA) are add-on cards for portable
computers, giving you expansion possibilities long afforded by
desktop PCs. Popular type II cards include flash memory, SRAM,
fax/data modem, LAN and SCSI cards. CardBus improves on the
16-bit PC card technology by expanding the bandwidth to 32 bits.
ZV (Zoomed Video) support allows your computer to support
hardware MPEG in the form of a ZV PC card.
Note: Refer to your card's manual for details on how to install and use the
card and its functions.
