    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.

    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide a digital pen for a computing device. As an example, the digital pen includes a barrel and a clip coupled to the barrel via a spring, wherein the clip is movable within the barrel in a direction opposite a force provided by the spring. The digital pen includes a first set of magnetic members to magnetically couple with a second set of magnetic members of the computing device, when the first and second sets of magnetic members are brought within proximity of each other. The digital pen includes a lever arm disposed within the barrel and comprising a wedge along an end of the lever arm. As an example, the wedge is to frictionally engage a retractable part of the computing device and an interior panel of the barrel, when the first and second sets of magnetic members are to magnetically couple with each other.

    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide a hinge assembly for a computing device. One example hinge assembly includes a first hinge attached along a back side of a base member of the computing device, and a second hinge attached along a back surface of a display member of the computing device. The hinge assembly includes a first support including a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first support is attached to the first hinge at the first end and attached to the second hinge at the second end. The support is disposed along the back surface of the display member outside a perimeter of a display surface of the display member.

    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide a computing device. One example computing device includes a base member, a support member rotatably connected to the base member at a first end of the support member, and a display member rotatably connected at a second end of the support member opposite the first end of the support member. The computing device includes a kickstand rotatably connected to a back surface of the display member at a first end of the kickstand, and magnetic members to magnetically couple the support member with a second end of the kickstand opposite the first end of the kickstand. When the device is to change from a first operation mode to a second operation mode, the kickstand is to move along the support member via the magnetic coupling.

    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide a computing device. One example computing device includes a base member, a support member connected to the base member via a shaft at a first end of the support member, and a display member connected at a second end of the support member opposite the first end. The computing device includes magnetic members disposed within the display member, wherein the magnetic members disposed within the display member is to magnetically couple with magnetic members disposed within the support member to operate the computing device in a first operation mode or a second operation mode. The computing device includes a mechanism disposed within the support member and connected to the base member via the shaft. The mechanism includes a feature to overcome the magnetic coupling between the magnetic members when the computing device is to change between the first and second operation modes.

    Abstract: Example implementations relate to a computing device. One example computing device includes a base member having a keyboard. The computing device also includes and a back plate connected to the base member. The back plate includes an upper support member and a lower support member. The computing device further includes a display housing connected to the upper support member. When the computing device is to change from a first operation mode to a second operation mode, the lower support member is to rotate with respect to a first axis of rotation and the display housing is to rotate with respect to a second axis of rotation that is parallel to the first axis of rotation.
