Name Your Notebook

If you plan to include your notebook on a network, your notebook must have a unique name. On the “What’s your computer’s name?” page, you can retain the default name shown in the Computer name box or designate another name.

For example, you may want to base your notebook name on your name or a location, such as “Familyroom.” In order for your notebook name to be displayed on a network, the name
