Placement of the computer
Proper placement of the computer and external devices is important to
avoid stress-related injuries. Consider the following when placing your
computer.
** Place the computer on a flat surface at a comfortable height and
distance. You should be able to type without twisting your torso or
neck, and look at the screen without slouching.
“* If you are using an external monitor, the top of the display should be
no higher than eye level.
>
“* If you use a paper holder, set it at about the same height and distance
as the screen.
Seating and posture
When using your computer, maintain good posture with your body relaxed
and your weight distributed evenly. Proper seating is a primary factor in
reducing work strain.

Removing a PC card
Hot swapping
With PC Cards, you can replace one PC Card with another while the
computer is on. This is called “hot swapping.”
Although you can insert a PC Card at any time, remember not to remove a
card while it is in use. Otherwise, you could lose valuable information. For
example:
“* Do not remove a hard disk card while the system is accessing it.
** Do not remove a network card while you are connected to a network.
** Do not remove a SCSI card while any of the SCSI devices connected
to it are operating.
Before removing a PC Card, shut it down by clicking the Safely Remove
Hardware icon on the taskbar. Once the PC Card has stopped, you can
safely remove it.

Computing tips
** Save your work frequently.
Your work stays in the computer’s temporary memory until you save it
to the disk. You will lose all unsaved work, if, for example, a system
error occurs and you must restart your computer, or your battery runs
out of charge while you are working. Your computer can be
configured to warn you when the battery is running low.
