While the video signal can easily hide the head-switching point in the invisible vertical retrace section of the signal, so that the exact switching point is not very important, the same is obviously not possible with a continuous audio signal that has no inaudible sections.

While Freenet provides an HTTP interface for browsing freesites, it is not a proxy for the World Wide Web ; Freenet can only be used to access content that has been previously inserted into the Freenet network.

While originally conceived of as an interface to knowledge based systems, it was soon repurposed as an Agent communication language.

While Swing components do implement the Serializable interface, they are not portable between different versions of the Java Virtual Machine.

While they suggest covering just a channel access method ( namely a variant of CDMA ), they are actually the common names for the whole air interface standards.

While the user-level interface code on this system started at boot time, there was a hidden, undocumented keyboard sequence that would provide a user with a root shell prompt in a scroll window on the device's edit-channel monitor.

While the core will accept light at higher numerical apertures ( higher angles ), those rays will not totally reflect off the core – cladding interface, and so will not be transmitted to the other end of the fiber.

While such interfaces as Ethernet, FireWire, and USB all send data as a serial stream, the term " serial port " usually identifies hardware more or less compliant to the RS-232 standard, intended to interface with a modem or with a similar communication device.

While the CNS network was not itself based on the X. 25 protocol, the network presented a standard X. 25 interface to the outside world, providing dialup connectivity to corporate hosts, and allowing CompuServe to form alliances with private networks Tymnet and Telenet, among others.

While each process will interface with key customers and suppliers, the customer relationship management and supplier relationship management processes form the critical linkages in the supply chain.

While these specialized hard drives were relatively slow due to the nature of how data was transferred through this interface ( designed primarily for floppy drives ) they did allow for true mass storage.

In April 2011, T-Mobile revived the Sidekick brand for a new HSPA +- compatible Android smartphone developed by Samsung, known as the Sidekick 4G, based on the Galaxy S.

While the external drive worked on both Apple's product lines, it was mainly intended for use on the Apple II series, for which Apple introduced in 1991 a slot-based interface called the Apple II 3. 5 Disk Controller Card for Apple IIe and II computers so they too could use 1. 4 MB storage and read / write MS-DOS.

While the term input method editor was originally used by Microsoft Windows, its use has now gained acceptance in other operating systems, especially when it is important to distinguish between the computer interface and implementation of input methods, or among the input methods themselves, the editing functionality of the program or operating system component providing the input method, and the general support of input methods in an operating system.
