Knowing the Parts 22 Microphone (Built-in)

The built-in mono microphone can be used for video conferencing, voice narrations, or simple audio recordings.

3 Camera (on selected models)

The built-in camera allows picture taking or video recording. Can be used with video conferencing and other interactive applications.

The display panel functions the same as a desktop monitor. The Notebook PC uses an active matrix TFT LCD, which provides excellent viewing like that of desktop moni- tors. Unlike desktop monitors, the LCD panel does not produce any radiation or flick- ering, so it is easier on the eyes. Use a soft cloth without chemical liquids (use plain water if necessary) to clean the display panel.
