Abstract:
Examples disclosed herein provide a computing device. One example computing device includes a first member including a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, and a second member including a third surface and a fourth surface opposite the third surface, wherein the second member is rotatably connected to the first member. The computing device includes a kickstand rotatably connected to the fourth surface of the second member at a first end of the kickstand. The computing device includes magnetic members to magnetically couple the second surface of the first member with a second end of the kickstand opposite the first end of the kickstand. As an example, when the computing device is to change from a first operation mode to a second operation mode, the kickstand is to move along the second surface of the first member via the magnetic coupling.
