Abstract

A computer including a keyboard portion and a display portion is interconnected in a manner which provides dual positions operational. In one position the keyboard portion may be horizontally positioned to facilitate the entry of data via the keyboard. In the other position, the display portion may be horizontally positioned to facilitate the entry of data or graphic designs via the interaction of a graphics pen over the display. Advantageously, the interconnection mechanism which provides the two positions maintains the readability of the display and the keyboard portions in either of the two positions.
