Abstract
A protective cover is for use with a hybrid computer which includes a display that is rotationally mounted to a keyboard. Relative rotation between the display and keyboard configures the hybrid computer as a laptop or a tablet computer. The protective cover includes raised regions and recessed regions. When the hybrid computer is configured as a tablet, the raised regions are received into the recessed regions. This allows outer housing surfaces of the display and keyboard to be in close proximity.
