WINDOWS CE OPERATING SYSTEM
Windows CE is the smallest member of the Windows op-
erating 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, multi-
tasking and runs on different processors such as the NEC
V 4121 MIPS processor.
R
Your MobilePro does not have a hard disk drive. The op-
erating 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 desktop computer to synchronize
your data. For more information about setting up your
MobilePro for synchronization, see the section in Chapter
1, "Connecting to Your PC."
Using Windows CE
Windows CE is similar to Windows 95. However, some
actions are executed differently, as indicated in the follow-
ing sections.
Tapping
Your NEC MobilePro comes with a stylus, a pen-like de-
vice 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.
To simulate the click of the right mouse button, hold down
the key while you tap or drag the object with the stylus.
Alt
Finally, never use a metal object in place of the stylus.
Metal objects may scratch the surface of the touch screen.
