Hard Disk Drive Disclaimer: 1 Gigabyte (GB) means 1000 * 1000 * 1000 = 1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. The computer operating system,

however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 1024 * 1024 * 1024 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore may show less storage
capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if the product includes pre-installed operating system and/or application software. Actual formatted capacity
may vary.

TFT Display Disclaimer: Small bright dots may appear on your TFT display when you turn on your PC. Your display contains an extremely large number of

thin-film transistors (TFT) and is manufactured using high-precision technology. Any small bright dots that may appear on your display are an intrinsic
characteristic of the TFT manufacturing technology.

****Weight: Weight may vary depending on actual configuration.
