APPLICATION BUTTONS

The six application buttons are located on the upper right-hand side of a vertically-oriented system. . Five of the buttons have secondary functions. The secondary functions are activated by pressing the Function (Fn) button while pressing the application button.

The buttons also have separate tertiary functions that can be used while the system is booting up. For more infor- mation about the tertiary functions, refer to Table 1-4 on page 12.

Ctl-Alt-Delis the only application button that can be used while the system is logging on or when the system is locked (i.e., when you have the Logon or Computer Locked window showing on your desktop).
