The cooling vent prevents the computer’s central processing 
unit (CPU) from overheating so that it can continue to 
perform at its maximum speed.
CAUTION: To prevent possible overheating of the CPU, make sure 
you don’t block the cooling vents.
The DC IN is where you plug in the AC adapter.
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports allow you to connect 
USB peripherals to your computer.
DEFINITION: USB is a peripheral expansion standard that 
supports a data-transfer rate of up to 12 Mbps for peripherals such 
as keyboards, pointing devices, and monitors. USB peripherals 
have a single standard for cabling and connectors. The USB 
standard allows hot swapping of peripherals.
The parallel port lets you connect a parallel printer or other 
parallel device, including ECP-compatible devices. 
The modem port lets you use a standard RJ11 telephone 
cable to connect the modem directly to a standard telephone 
line. For more information, see
