Notes on Using the Microphone
You can use the built-in or an external microphone that connects to the 
microphone jack to record monaural sounds into your applications. It can 
also be used to issue voice commands to applications that support such 
functions (built-in microphone is provided with some models).
Since your computer has a microphone and speaker, "feedback" may be 
heard under certain conditions. Feedback occurs when sound from the 
speaker is picked up in the microphone and amplified back to the speaker, 
which amplifies it again to the microphone.
This feedback occurs repeatedly and causes a very loud, high-pitched 
noise. It is a common phenomenon that occurs in any sound system when 
the microphone input is output to the speaker (throughput) and the speaker 
volume is too loud or too close to the microphone. You can control 
throughput by adjusting the volume of your speaker or through the Mute 
function in the Master Volume panel. Refer to your Windows documentation 
for details on using the Master Volume panel.
Wireless communications
The computer’s wireless communication function supports some wireless 
communication devices.
Only some models are equipped with both Wireless LAN and Bluetooth 
functions.
