1 Your laptop and your responsibility
You have bought a new laptop via the Neptun project. It is your laptop now, which means
that maintenance, i.e. keeping it up to the latest security standards, and data care is in
your responsibility. This document provides basic help. However, you can obtain support if
you feel uncertain; more help is given in the next section.
2 More help
