Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a method may include mechanically supporting a cantilever arm of a clickpad between a support bracket and a housing by a compressive force of the plurality of fasteners applied to the support bracket and the housing, and free of any features for receiving any of a plurality of fasteners for coupling the support bracket to the housing, wherein the cantilever arm has a pivot end and a trigger end, and such that the cantilever arm pivots about a pivot axis proximate to the pivot end in response to a force exerted on the surface of the clickpad substantially perpendicular to a surface of the clickpad.

Abstract: A media base security device and method of use is disclosed. According to one aspect, a media base security device can include a lock rod mechanism coupled to a portion of a media base housing including a security lock aperture operable to receive a security lock. The media base security device can also include a release lever accessible external to the housing. The release lever can be operable to release the media base housing when coupled to a portable computer system. The release lever can include a lock rod seat operable to engage a lock rod extending from the lock rod mechanism in response to locking the security lock.
