A Word on Using the Mouse

This manual assumes you are right-handed; if you are left-handed you can switch

the functionality of left and right mouse buttons, if you find it easier. Refer to
"switching, mouse buttons" in the Windows help system
The mouse should be considered as a tool that lets you communicate with the
programs running on your HP Brio PC — moving the mouse, clicking and double-
clicking its buttons all have a specific meaning.
Some of these clicking actions always have the same effect, no matter which
program you are using — left-clicking on a menu, for example, always displays the
choices within that menu.
The left mouse button is the "general purpose" button — you use it for selecting,
highlighting, clicking, and for dragging things around your windows (moving the
mouse while holding down the left mouse button on a highlighted item).
The right mouse button can also be used within many programs. The choices
available to you may differ from program to program — right-clicking on the Start
button for example. Try it for yourself, and see what choices are available by right-
clicking in different areas of the taskbar.
