Notes -

1. MHz only measures internal clock speed, not application performance. Many factors affect application performance. For Intel Mobile Pentium III processors with SpeedStep technology, MHz speed denotes maximum performance mode; battery-optimized performance mode is approximately 80% of maximum performance.
2. Optional SDRAM memory modules are available in 32, 64, and 128 MB sizes. Total maximum memory of 192 MB can be achieved by adding a 128 MB memory card to the 64 MB memory that is basic to the system.
3. GB equals one billion bytes when referring to HDDs. Accessible capacity may vary.
4. This V.90 modem can receive data up to 56 Kbps from a compatible service provider, transmitting data up to 31.2 Kbps. Public networks currently limit maximum download speeds to about 53 Kbps. Actual speeds depend on many factors and are often less than the maximum possible.
5. Variable read rate. Actual playback speed will vary and is often less than the maximum possible.
6. Requires Internet access account, available separately.
7. Some software may differ from its retail version (if available), and may not include user's manuals or all program functions.
   Wireless models have no Windows Small Business Edition software.
