If you need even more screen real estate, the HDMI port lets you add an additional monitor.<\/p>\n<p>The DVD player comes with PowerDVD10 software for playing your movies and YouCam software for the webcam. A number of games are included as well that show off the 10-point multitouch display.<\/p>\n<p>Another favorite feature that works especially well for my setup is the number of USB ports \u2013 six in all (4 USB 2.0 and 2 USB 3.0.)\u00a0 Two are located on the left side of the screen for easy access and four are located on the back along with the single HDMI-out and 1GB Ethernet port.<\/p>\n<p>Also on the left is a 6-in-1 card reader along with 3.5mm earphone and microphone jacks. I especially like that all jacks come out the side or back \u2013 nothing protrudes from the front. I actually don\u2019t even use the input jack much, as I can stream music from my smartphone directly to the B540 via Bluetooth<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10161\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Bluetooth.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10161\" class=\"wp-image-10161 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Bluetooth-600x365.png?resize=600%2C365\" alt=\"Bluetooth\" width=\"600\" height=\"365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Bluetooth.png?resize=600%2C365&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Bluetooth.png?resize=150%2C91&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Bluetooth.png?resize=300%2C182&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Bluetooth.png?w=871&amp;ssl=1 871w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-10161\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bluetooth makes it a snap to stream music to the PC from my smartphone.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Set up, the B540 takes up very little desk space, 10\u201d deep by 22-1\/2\u201d wide.
