out of the vents as items such as pins or similar objects, which can
damage the computer's circuitry.

A pair of Universal Serial Bus ports is on the left
side. The port complies with the USB 2.0
standard, which enables data transfer speeds 40
times faster than the USB 1.1 standard (The
ports also support USB 1.1). Keep foreign
objects out of the USB connectors. A pin or
similar object can damage the computer's
circuitry. Operation of all functions of all USB
