An apparatus and method are disclosed for migrating between terminals. An apparatus that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a network proxy having a controller that manages a communications interface in a communication system. The controller can be programmed to receive a request to migrate a first terminal to a third terminal while active communications are taking place on a first voice channel connecting the first terminal to a second terminal, establish a second voice channel with the third terminal, connect the first and second voice channels, and terminate without action of an end user of the first terminal a connection between the first terminal and the first voice channel. Additional embodiments are disclosed.

Method and apparatus for migrating active communication session between terminals

A method of setting a pixel clock frequency for a display of an information handling system (IHS) is disclosed whereby the method includes detecting an identifier associated with a wireless card operable for use with the IHS. The method also includes selecting a timing descriptor, the timing descriptor associated with a display setting and wherein the timing descriptor corresponds to the identifier. The method further includes setting the pixel clock frequency based on the timing descriptor selected.

Methods for setting a pixel clock frequency

A system and method is provided for providing a user-interface comprising a visual display of the physical location of a plurality of I/O ports on the housing of a portable information handling system. In various embodiments, the physical location and status of the various I/O ports are shown using icons on the periphery of the display with the location of the icons on the display being correlated with the physical location of the physical ports on the housing of the portable information handling system. In some embodiments of the invention, the map is launched when the user depresses a predetermined 'hot key.' In other embodiments, the map is launched using other user gestures, such as executing a mouse click when the mouse pointer is positioned at a location proximate to an icon on the display or by touching a predetermined icon on a touch-sensitive screen.

Visual display of physical port location for information handling system

A calling card system includes a public switched telephone network (PSTN) and a service selection gateway. The PSTN may receive calls from communication devices that may be either voice communication or data communication. The calls may be forwarded to the service selection gateway based on a calling card access number that is included in the call. Calls that are voice communication may be transferred to the PSTN or to a public network by the service selection gateway. The service selection gateway may provide voice communication transferred to the public network in a voice based network protocol such as VoIP that is transmittable over the public network. Calls that are data communication may be selectively transmitted over the public network in a data network protocol with the service selection gateway.

Calling card system for voice and data transmission over a public network

A computer comprises a central processing unit, at least one fan disposed for providing cooling to the at least one central processing unit, and a thermal manager. The thermal manager monitors a temperature of the central processing unit and dynamically controls a throttling of the central processing unit and the at least one fan according to a thermal management algorithm.
