7 Customizing and Traveling With Your PowerBook

Customizing your PowerBook

There are several ways you can customize your PowerBook Duo to make your day-to-day work easier:

mReconnecting to shared disks If you use your PowerBook Duo on a network to connect to shared disks, the AutoRemounter control panel lets you reconnect automatically.

mUsing a RAM disk Using a RAM disk saves you time and battery power. When you create a RAM disk, its contents are saved in the System Folder when you shut down your PowerBook, and then copied back to the RAM disk the next time you turn the computer on.

mImproving the pointer display You can set options to make the pointer more visible on the screen.

mPrinting later You can set up documents to print the next time you connect to the network printer.

These features are described in the next sections.
