Windows CE Operating System
Windows CE is the smallest member of the Windows
operating system family using the Windows 95 interface.
What exactly does smallest mean? It means mobility and
portability provided through a reduced code base. This code
base is completely 32-bit; it is multithreaded, multitasking
and runs on different processors such as the NEC VR4121
MIPS processor.
Your MobilePro does not have a hard disk drive. The
operating system and preloaded applications are deployed on
a Read-Only Memory (ROM) module; files that you work on
are stored in Random Access Memory (RAM) on a RAM
module.
The power of Windows CE is enhanced through its design to
easily link with your host PC to synchronize your data. For
more information about setting up your MobilePro for
synchronization, see the section, "Upgrading Your NEC
MobilePro 750C," in Chapter 1.
Using Windows CE
Windows CE is similar to Windows 95. However, some
actions are executed differently, as indicated in the following
sections.
Tapping
Your NEC MobilePro comes with a stylus, a pen-like device
that allows you to touch, tap, or double tap objects on the
MobilePro touch screen. The touch, tap, and double tap act
just like a point, click, and double click of a mouse.
