Abstract:
1. A computing device, comprising: a base portion including a top planar surface with an input device region included in and aligned along the top planar surface, the base portion including a raised guide having a slot partially recessed in a side of the raised guide, a depth of the slot is less than a thickness of the raised guide; and a display portion operably coupled to the base portion and including a display, the display portion being configured to slidably move along the raised guide over the input device region of the base portion, the display including a viewable surface facing in a first direction away from the base portion when the computing device is in a tablet configuration with a primary plane of the display portion being substantially parallel to a primary plane of the base portion, the display portion being configured to cover the input device region when the computing device is in the tablet configuration, the viewable surface of the display facing in a second direction towards the base portion when the computing device is in a closed configuration with the primary plane of the display portion being substantially parallel to the primary plane of the base portion, the display portion being configured to cover the input device region when the computing device is in the closed configuration, the viewable surface of the display of the computing device having a rotational position non-parallel to the primary plane of the base portion when the computing device is in an easel configuration or in a laptop configuration, the display portion includes a bottom portion positioned on a front end side of the input device region when the computing device is in the easel configuration, the bottom portion of the display portion is positioned on a back end side of the input device region when the computing device is in the laptop configuration.
