Claim:
A stand against which an electronic device having a front face with a display screen disposed thereon is leaned, the stand comprising: a base board to be laid; a back support board having a former edge that is pivotably supported on the base board around a turning shaft extending right and left at a position that goes from the former edge of the base board backward, the back support board being pivotable between a flat state in which the back support board lies flat on the base board and at least one of standing states in which the back support board stands diagonally on the base board, and supporting a back of the electronic device in the standing state; a support interposition board that is pivotably supported on one of the back support board and the base board, and lies flat together with the back support board and the base board when the back support board is in the flat state, the support interposition board being pivotable when the back support board is in the standing states, so that the support interposition board is interposed between the back support board and the base board and allows the back support board to be supported on the base board in the standing states; and a front support board that is arranged between the former edge of the base board and a former edge of the back support board, the front support board being pivotable between a flat state in which the former edge of the front support board is pivotably supported by the base board along the former edge of the base board, and the front support board lies flat on the base board, and a standing state in which the front support board stands at a prescribed angle on the base board and a rear end edge of the front support board abuts and supports a lower front part of the electronic device whose back is supported by the back support board in the standing state; wherein the stand is fixed under a keyboard having a front face where operation keys are arranged, the keyboard having a screw hole in a back face, with a screw using the screw hole of the keyboard, and the stand has an unloaded hole that permits the stand to be pivotable with the screw loosened between a storage state that the stand is stored under the keyboard, and a use state that the former edge of the base board remains under the keyboard and the back support board is taken out from under the keyboard.
