HP branded memory to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the
lower memory speed. Full availability of 4 GB or more of memory requires Windows Vista Business 64bit or Linux. With Windows 32-bit operating systems, the amount of usable memory is dependent upon
your configuration, so that above 3 GB all memory may not be available due to system resource
requirements.
Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we recommend

* The term "10/100/1000" or "Gigabit" Ethernet indicates compliance with IEEE standard 802.3ab for
Gigabit Ethernet, and does not connote actual operating speed of 1 Gb/s. For high-speed transmission,
connection to a Gigabit Ethernet server and network infrastructure is required.
** Designed for downloads from 56K modem compliant sources. Maximum achievable download
transmission rates currently do not reach 56 KB/s, and will vary with line conditions. Modem availability
is subject to country regulatory approval.
Support for a broad range of secure, integrated wireless LAN and wireless WAN options featuring
support for the latest industry standards. Wireless LAN is factory configurable or available as an option
to be added later. Broadband Wireless (WWAN) requires Windows Vista Business or Windows XP
Professional and is available in select countries as a standard, factory configurable feature only.
Integrated Bluetooth is also available (factory configurable only) and can be combined with any of the
supported wireless LAN and wireless WAN options.
