We would like to thank you for making the TravelMate series of notebook

computers your choice for your mobile computing needs. We hope you will be

started with setting up your computer.

This User’s Guide introduces you to the many ways your

computer can help you be more productive. This guide

provides clear and concise information about the computer,

so read it thoroughly.

If you ever need to print out a copy, this User’s Guide is also

available in PDF (Portable Document Format). Follow these

steps:
