ABSTRACT:
A computer is provided with a base unit having a receptacle, under a keyboard, capable of housing a tracking device (mouse) in the inoperative position. The tracking device is supported by a flexible sheet suitably guided by the base unit so that it may be easily withdrawn from its receptacle. The flexible sheet has a precurved part so that it causes the tracking device to snap into a raised position adjacent to the keyboard when it is in its operating position. In a variant, a supporting structure for a mouse is also provided and enables the mouse to be positioned on the left side of the computer.
