Abstract: Sockets that provide easy access for users to change cards while allowing the use of thinner device enclosures. One example provides a socket having two positions. When the socket is in an open state, the card may be oriented in a direction substantially away from the main logic board. When the socket is in a closed state, the card moves such that it is oriented at least closer to being in parallel to the main logic board.

Abstract: An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device may include a first side and a second side. The electronic device may also include a lid configured to cover an opening on the first side. The lid may include an interior side. The interior side may be invisible from outside of the electronic device when the lid covers the opening. The electronic device may also include a latching mechanism including a slider configured to slide along at least one of the lid and the first side for latching the lid at the interior side. The electronic device may also include a control unit disposed on the second side and configured to actuate movement of the slider.

Abstract: A housing for accommodating one or more riser cards is disclosed. The one or more riser cards include a first riser card. The first riser card may be configured to carry at least a first component. The housing may include a first inlet side configured to allow first air to flow into the housing for cooling the first component. The housing may also include an outlet side configured to allow at least a first portion of the first air to flow away from the housing. The housing may be configured to be disposed inside an enclosure of an electronic device. At least one of the first inlet side and the outlet side may include a first guiding structure configured to guide movement of the first riser card relative to the housing.

Abstract: When a document generated from an application is printed, each page of the document is treated as a separate image Then, one or more templates are generated for a document, with each template containing common elements for a set of images in the document. For each set of images, sets of changes are identified. The templates and corresponding sets of changes to each image in a set of images may be reduced from one color space to another color space. The reduced templates and corresponding sets of changes are then compressed and formatted into a native file transfer format understood by a mobile computing tool, for transfer to a mobile computing tool, where the data is decompressed and images are rebuilt from the templates and corresponding sets of changes.

Abstract: A disk drive media access system opens a media access door to the interior of a disk drive sufficiently for ejection of disk media from the disk drive but insufficiently for manually engaging and removing disk media that is operationally positioned within the disk drive. The disk media is kept substantially laterally stationary during the opening of the media access door. The disk media is moved sufficiently for manually engaging the disk media for removing the disk media from the disk drive.

Abstract: An access system for a portable device provides a portable computer having a bottom surface. The portable computer is accessed through an active user interface on the bottom surface of the portable computer.

Abstract: A method of teaching with computer devices having displays. Virtual transparent overlays and underlays are generated that can be annotated with indicia such as words, marks, and other selected indicia. Alternately, or in combination with a transparent overlay as discussed above opaque overlays can be generated for selected uncovering of information available on a computer device display.
