Display. Small bright dots may appear on your screen 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. Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the computer, the brightness of the screen will deteriorate. This
is also an intrinsic characteristic of the screen technology.
When the computer is operated on battery power, the screen with dim and you may not be able to increase the brightness of the screen while on battery
power.

NVIDIA Turbocache: nVIDIA Quadro® NVS 1100M with 128MB of dedicated graphics memory, The revolutionary new nVIDIA GPU utilizes the additional
bandwidth of PCI Express to reach higher levels of graphics performance than traditional graphics memory solutions. The nVIDIA GPU shares the capacity
and bandwidth of dedicated graphics memory and dynamically available system memory for turbocharged performance and larger total graphics memory.
The VRAM capacity indicated in the NVIDIA display is the sum of the discrete graphics memory and the maximum possible graphics memory allocated
dynamically by the system memory. The system memory capacity indicated in the Microsoft Windows PROPERTIES display is the maximum possible
system memory capacity without adjustment for any system memory which may be dynamically allocated to the graphics system depending on demand.
