Getting started

The HP QuickWeb environment provides a fun and engaging way to perform many of your favorite activities. Your computer is ready to go within seconds of starting HP QuickWeb, allowing you to rapidly access the Internet, widgets, and communication programs. To use QuickWeb, press the QuickWeb button, and then start browsing the Web, communicating with others using Skype, and exploring other HP QuickWeb widgets.

Your HP QuickWeb Home screen includes the following features:

●Web browser—Search and browse the Web, and create links to your favorite Web sites.

●Widgets—Start using widgets for news, weather, social networking, stocks, a calculator, sticky notes, and more. You can also use Widget Manager to add more widgets to the HP QuickWeb Home screen.
