Video Performance PCI local bus video with industry-leading 256-bit graphics acceleration and high-speed 2.5MB Synchronous Graphics Random Access Memory (SGRAM) boost video performance. Simultaneous Display The computer’s large display and multimedia capabilities are great for giving presentations. If you prefer, you can also connect an external Monitor when giving presentations. This computer supports simultaneous LCD and CRT display. Simultaneous display allows you to control the presentation from your computer and at the same time face your audience. With the built-in S- video output jack, you can even connect other output display devices such as LCD projection panels for large-audience presentations. Dual Display The computer’s unique graphics chip takes advantage of Windows 98’s multi- display capability, allowing you to extend your desktop to an external display device, such as an external Monitor or Projector. With this feature enabled, you can move program windows to/from the computer LCD and the external monitor. Power Management The power management system incorporates an "automatic LCD dim" feature that automatically decides the best settings for your display and at the same time conserves power.
