Never take the notebook anywhere without the carrying case

A broken screen or case can be costly to repair. Prevent accidents by carrying the computer in a suitable carrying case.

Consider using a lock

For added security, consider purchasing a Kensington lock to put int o the Kensington lock hole on the back side of your computer (see Chapter 2, back View). Use the Kensington lock to secure the computer to a desk or table.

Note: Using a computer for extended periods of time with a poor workstation setup and incorrect work habits can cause health problems.
