2.2 Display
The large graphics display offers excellent viewing, display quality and
desktop performance graphics. The notebook supports two different display
configurations — DSTN and TFT active matrix.
Video Performance
PCI local bus video with graphics accelerator and 1MB video RAM boost
video performance.
Simultaneous Display
The notebook’s large display and multimedia capabilities are great for giving
presentations. If you prefer, you can also connect an external monitor when
giving presentations. This notebook supports simultaneous LCD and CRT
display. Simultaneous display allows you to control the presentation from
your notebook and at the same time face your audience. You can even
connect an LCD projection panel for large-audience presentations.
Power Management
The power management system incorporates an “automatic LCD dim” feature
that automatically decides the best settings for your display and at the same
time conserve power. See section 3.2 for more information on power
management.
Opening and Closing the Display
To open the display, slide the display lid latch to the left and lift up the lid.
Then tilt it to a comfortable viewing position.
The notebook employs a microswitch that turns off the display to conserve
power when you close the lid, and turns it back on when you open the lid.
