functionality, and a track stick to control the cursor on the display screen. These pointing devices are positioned for both left- and right-

Two sets of left and right buttons, located above and below the touch pad, mimic mouse buttons. You can also perform many pointing
functions by tapping the touch pad or the track stick. Click-and-drag buttonless functions are also supported.

keyboards, mice, printers, and computer speakers. Also, you can connect and disconnect USB-compliant devices while the computer is
running.
