Abstract

A portable computer has a main body section, a display screen and an adjustable camera assembly. The camera assembly is carried by the portable computer and has a limited field of view and a discernable viewing direction. The camera assembly is moveable relative to the portable computer so that the viewing direction may be adjusted without moving the main body section or display screen.
