Chapter 1. Introducing the IBM Anyplace Kiosk
The IBM Anyplace Kiosk (see Figure 1) is acomprehensive and compact, touch
screen terminal for self-service applications. The rugged aspect of the 4836 makes
the product suitable for awide variety of uses, such as retrieving information,
listening to music, or watching multi-media presentations.
To view the model dimensions, see Appendix B, “Product dimensions,” on page 57.
Architecture and attributes
The IBM Anyplace Kiosk uses standard mobile technology within the design of a
customer service terminal. The typical configuration does not contain akeyboard or
mouse because all input is through the touch screen.
The IBM 4836 contains the following key attributes:
v12″(800 x600) or 15″(1024 x768) dual–bulb backlit TFT display (250 nits
brightness)
vInfrared touch-screen system
vPresence detector
vSealed display face that allows cleaning without the risk of fluids damaging the
chassis
vIntel
® Celeron ® MProcessor 320 (1.3 GHz)
vIntel 855GME mobile chip set
v2SO-DIMM DDR memory sockets. Base memory size is 256 Megabytes, with 2
Gigabtyes maximum memory
vExternal, universal 16V dc, 120 Wpower brick. Only use power bricks supplied
by IBM specifically for use with the Anyplace kiosk.

enclosures to maximize both the volume and frequency response (except Model
13V)
vHeadphone and microphone jack
vHidden and optionally tamper-proof controls through asnap-on cover for power
on/off, brightness, and contrast
vEthernet support (10/100 UTP)
