Automobile/airplane power adapters
With an automobile/airplane power adapter, you can save
battery power by plugging your convertible notebook into an
automobile cigarette lighter or an airplane in-flight power
receptacle.
Batteries
If you run your convertible notebook on battery power for
extended periods, you may want to buy an additional battery
so you can swap batteries when necessary. See “Changing the
battery” on page 71 for more information about using an
additional battery.
Carrying cases
Gateway has large-capacity carrying cases if you need
additional space for accessories or supplies.
Digital pens
Order replacement digital pens from Gateway. The convertible
notebook does not respond to other tablet pens, plastic pens,
or PDA stylus.
Hard drives
If you want to increase your internal storage space, try
replacing your existing hard drive with a larger drive. See
“Replacing the hard drive kit” on page 112 for more
information.
Memory
Large programs, such as multimedia games or graphics
programs, use a lot of memory. If your programs are running
more slowly than you think they should, try adding more
memory. See “Adding or replacing memory modules” on
page 109 for more information.
Port replicators
Although you can attach devices directly to your convertible
notebook, a port replicator lets you make all of those
connections at one time. When you travel with your
convertible notebook, you merely disconnect from the port
replicator instead of unplugging all the devices.
