摘要： A computing device includes a communication port, memory resources, and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to combine with the memory resources to operate one or more of the plurality of modules. The plurality of modules are operative in order to handle exchange of communications with a primary computer over the communication port. The one or more modules include a first module that is operative in a first communication mode in enabling exchange of communications with the primary computer over the communication port. The exchange of communications causes the primary computer to access and execute one or more autorun files from the computing device. The one or more modules may also include a second module that is operative in a second communication mode to be operative in enabling an alternative function to be performed with or for the primary computer over the communication port.

摘要： A touch-sensitive display screen is enhanced by a touch-sensitive control area that extends beyond the edges of the display screen. The touch-sensitive area outside the display screen, referred to as a “gesture area,” allows a user to activate commands using a gesture vocabulary. In one aspect, the present invention allows some commands to be activated by inputting a gesture within the gesture area. Other commands can be activated by directly manipulating on-screen objects. Yet other commands can be activated by beginning a gesture within the gesture area, and finishing it on the screen (or vice versa), and/or by performing input that involves contemporaneous contact with both the gesture area and the screen.

摘要： A docking apparatus for docking selected portable computers which provides coarse and medium alignment between the docking connector of the computer system and the docking connector of a docking station mounted on a docking tray by providing rails having oppositely facing upright flat faces on a docking tray and notches formed in the underside of the chassis, the notches having corresponding oppositely facing upright flat faces and opposing sloping sidewalls for urging the flat face of the rails toward the flat faces of the notches. The notches are preferably wider at the leading edge of the chassis, away from the connector than at the trailing edge, close to the chassis and the rails are preferably spaced further apart at the leading edge of the tray than they are close to the docking station. Coarse alignment followed by finer alignment is accomplished by providing a closer spacing between the rails as they get closer to the docking station and by providing notches which are narrower closer to the docking station than away from the docking station.

摘要翻译： 一种对接装置，用于对接选定的便携式计算机，其通过在对接托盘和凹口上提供具有相对面对的直立平坦面的轨道，在计算机系统的对接连接器和安装在对接托盘上的坞站的对接连接器之间提供粗略和中等的对准 形成在底盘的下侧，凹口具有对应的相对的直立平面和相对的倾斜侧壁，用于将轨道的平坦表面推向凹口的平坦表面。 凹口优选地在底盘的前缘处比在后缘远离连接器更靠近底盘，并且轨道优选地在托盘的前缘处更远地分开，而不是靠近对接站 。 通过在轨道更靠近对接站之间提供更靠近的间隔并且通过提供比远离对接站更靠近对接站的凹口来实现粗略对准，然后进行更精细的对准。
