ABSTRACT:
A network/portable computer (18) includes a modular bay (20) which can receive either a hard drive (22) or a data transceiver (24) for establishing a wireless network connection. When the network/portable computer (18) is in the local area covered by the network (10), the data transceiver (24) is installed to use the network (10) for storage and retrieval of data. When used in a remote area, where a network connection cannot be established, the hard drive (22) is installed in the modular bay (20) to provide a full featured computer.
