  • Publication number: 20120169614
    Abstract: A computer terminal with a removable front panel having one or more user interfaces, such as a touch sensitive display and a keypad or keyboard. The front panel can be removably attached to the computer terminal, for example using a multitude of screws or other mechanical fasteners. The computer terminal can include an electrical connector that engages an electrical connector of the front panel to facilitate signal flow between components of the front panel and components of the computer terminal. Supply power also can be provided to components of the front panel via the electrical connectors. The removable front panel can be replaced in a quick and simple manner, for example when a user interface is damaged or rendered inoperable.
