At least an external electronic device is connected to the computer host through a plurality of connection ports disposed on the computer host. A control panel is disposed at the front end of the housing to control the computer host. A display for displaying text or picture information is also connected to the computer host. A touch panel adhering to the display is also provided. Data can be input through contacting the touch panel.
