Abstract
An electronic device includes a base to which is rotatably connected a tilting member. The base has a input area and the tilting member has a screen. The tilting member is selectively rotatably positionable to (1) a closed position parallel to the base, and (2) an open position upwardly angled away from the base. In the open position the electronic device can be placed on a support surface wherein the rear surface alone of the base supports the tilting member.
