ABSTRACT:
A portable computer is provided with a battery-carrying handle member which is connected to the computer housing by an attachment structure extending between the handle member and the housing. The battery is electrically connectable to various electrical power-consuming devices in the housing, and the handle member is rotatable relative to the attachment structure, about an axis spaced apart from the handle member, between (1) a storage position, (2) a carrying position, and (3) a keyboard tilt orientation. Abutment end portions of the handle member are engageable with the attachment structure in a manner limiting the total rotational arc of the handle member relative to the attachment structure.
