Abstract:
A system for customizing support of an information handling system which includes an order determination module and a support customization module. The order determination module determines items ordered by a customer at a point of sale of the information handling system. The support customization module customizes support information presented on the information handling system based upon the items ordered by the customer.
Abstract:
A system which dynamically generates a list of applications on an individual machine that a firewall application should enable access to the internet by default is provided. The list is generated via registering applications during factory installation. Firewall applications scan this list of registered applications during the installation or setup of the firewall application and add all applications in the list to the list of default trusted applications.
Abstract:

The multi-function device can have a display configured to display interface tool for facilitating the customization of a function of the multi-function device. The interface tools allow a user to communicate with the multi-function device to enter information relating to the customized function. The custom application can be configured to be installed on the multi-function device, and the custom application is used to customize the multi-function device.
Abstract:
A method of absorption spectroscopy to determine a rapidly variable gas parameter. The method includes transmitting light from a synchronization light source to a synchronization detector. The transmitted light is periodically interrupted by a moving mechanical part between the synchronization light source and synchronization detector. The output from the synchronization detector is used to generate a repeating time signal having variable phase delay. This signal is used to control the timing of laser spectroscopy wavelength scans. Multiple spectroscopic scans may be repeated at multiple selected time signal phase delay and the results averaged for each phase. Apparatus for implementing the above methods are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A method of calibrating an absorption spectroscopy measurement wherein the calibration method includes projecting laser light through a sample of a first quantity of a gas of interest and a second irrelevant quantity of a spectroscopically identical or similar gas (10). The first and second spectroscopic absorptions of the laser light are measured over specific first and second absorption lines. A functional relationship is determined between the first and second measured spectroscopic absorptions and two unknown variables. The function relationships may then be simultaneously solved to determine one or both unknown variables and thereby obtain a measurement relating to the first quantity of the gas of interest, calibrated for the second irrelevant quantity of gas.
Abstract:
A method for providing an out of box experience (OOBE) which includes providing an OOBE module and an OOBE variables file, providing OOBE options to the OOBE module via the OOBE variables file, customizing the out of box experience via the OOBE options in the OOBE variables file, and presenting the out of box experience via the OOBE module is disclosed.
Abstract:
An apparatus for preconfiguring an information handling system which includes means for configuring a system with options selected according to user input wherein the options includes at least one renewable component, means for enabling a customer to indicate authorization to automatically renew the renewable component, and a database that receives information from and supplies information to the configurator and the automatic renewal module is disclosed.
Abstract:
Polyester carpets of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) are disclosed which have excellent stain-resistance, texture retention and resistance to crushing. The bulked continuous filament yarn used to make the carpets and the process for making the yarns are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A system for prequalifying an information handling system which includes a configurator, an after point of sale prequalification module and a prequalification information store module. The configurator configures a system with options selected according to user input. The after point of sale prequalification module obtains prequalification information relating to whether an ordered information handling system corresponds to prequalification criteria. The prequalification information store module stores the prequalification information relating to the ordered information handling system.
