Saving your work
Before you turn off the computer, save your work to the hard
disk drive or a diskette.
Always save your data even when you are using the Standby
command. If your battery fully discharges, your unsaved
information will be lost. Your computer can be configured to
warn you when the battery is running low. See “Setting battery
alarms” on page 125.
