Cooling vents
Cooling vents help CPU keep from overheating.
Do not block the cooling vents. Never allow metal objects, such as screws, 
staples and paper clips, to enter the PC or keyboard. Foreign metal objects 
can create a short circuit, which can cause PC damage and fire, possibly 
resulting in serious injury.
Security lock slot
A security cable attaches to this slot. The 
optional security cable anchors your computer to 
a desk or other large object to deter theft.
Universal Serial Bus 
(USB 2.0) ports
Two Universal Serial Bus ports are on the left 
side. The ports comply 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. Never allow metal 
objects, such as screws, staples and paper clips, to enter the PC or 
keyboard. Foreign metal objects can create a short circuit, which can 
cause PC damage and fire, possibly resulting in serious injury.
Operation of all functions of all USB devices has not been confirmed. 
Some functions might not execute properly.
