Abstract:
1. A computing system, comprising: a base chassis that houses at least one computing component; a first keyboard segment that is moveably coupled to the base chassis; a second keyboard segment that is moveably coupled to the base chassis; and a joint that connects the first keyboard segment to the second keyboard segment and that allows movement of the first keyboard segment relative to the second keyboard segment; wherein the joint and the moveable couplings of the first keyboard segment and the second keyboard segment to the base chassis allow movement of the first keyboard segment and the second keyboard segment relative to the base chassis and into at least one of a tented orientation and a splayed orientation, and wherein at least one of the joint and the movable couplings resists movement, by way of a frictionally engageable surface, of the first keyboard segment and the second keyboard segment relative to the base chassis and out of the at least one of the tented orientation and the splayed orientation.
