Using the Internet
The Internet is a global, interlinked network of PCs
allowing you to connect your PC with others
throughout the world. You can send and receive
e-mail, find information on the World Wide Web,
and access many other services.
The Basics
Before you begin surfing the Internet, ensure that
your PC modem phone line or broadband cable is
connected, as shown in the Quick Setup guide
included with your PC.
Next, establish an Internet Service Provider (ISP)
account. On certain models, Compaq provides a
selection of ISPs for you to choose from; check your
Windows desktop.
