a standard 4:3 screen.
J

quality in spite of its high compression ratio.
Files are recognized by their file extension
‘.jpg’ or ‘.jpeg.’
K
Kbps
Kilobits per second. A digital-data-rate
measurement system which is often used
with highly compressed formats such as AAC,
DAB, MP3 etc. The higher the amount, the
better the quality generally is.
Kensington lock
A Kensington Security Slot (also called a
K-Slot or Kensington lock). Part of an antitheft system. It is a small, metal-reinforced
hole found on almost all small or portable
computer and electronics equipment,
particularly on expensive and/or relatively light
ones, such as laptops, computer monitors,
desktop computers, gaming consoles, and
video projectors. It is used for attaching a
lock-and-cable apparatus, in particular those
from Kensington.

Memory Stick. A flash memory card for digital
storage on cameras, camcorders and other
handheld devices.
MMC Card
MultiMedia Card. A flash memory card that
provides storage for cellphones, PDAs and other
handheld devices. The card uses flash memory

used for adding applications to a Palm PDA.
Motion JPEG
Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) is an informal name for
multimedia formats where each video frame
or interlaced field of a digital video sequence is
separately compressed as a JPEG image. It is often
used in mobile appliances such as digital cameras.
MP3

system. MP3 is the abbreviation of Motion

data than a regular CD.
S

Secure Digital Memory Card. A flash memory
card that provides storage for digital cameras,
cellphones and PDAs. SD Cards use the same
32 x 24mm form factor as the MultiMediaCard
(MMC), but are slightly thicker (2.1mm vs.

formats. Cards up to 4GB are available.
