Abstract
A tailgate assembly of a computer including a tailgate member having a plurality of slots behind which may be positioned removable expansion boards, and an EMC gasket between the tailgate member and the expansion boards. An alignment pin projects from the tailgate member on each side of each slot. The alignment pins on each side of each slot guide the expansion board into place as it is being positioned behind one of the slots and prevents the EMC gasket from sliding out of position.
