    Abstract: In a low profile microcomputer, adapter cards are mounted horizontally in order to be able to use adapter cards designed for earlier, higher, machines. The cards are coupled to the microcomputer planar board by an extender card which extends vertically from the planar and has sockets extending horizontally when the card is in position. The adapter cards have edge connections which couple to these sockets. A removable bridge device is coupled between the top of the extender card and a vertical wall of the microcomputer to minimize horizontal movement of the extender card. For adapter cards which do not extend fully between the front and rear walls of the microcomputer, a channelled support arm, which fits over an end of a card, and is removably mounted on a vertical wall of the computer for slidable engagement with the card.

    Abstract: This invention relates to enclosures for computers, and more particularly to such an enclosure which facilitates access to and shielding of the operative components of a personal computer. The enclosure includes a chassis, a cover for cooperating with the chassis for enclosing a volume to contain operating components of the microcomputer, and interrupted wedge members for coupling the chassis and cover upon relative movement therebetween in a predetermined direction. The interrupted wedge members include a plurality of hooks on one of the chassis and cover and a plurality of pockets on the other, with the hooks and pockets being disposed along two sides of the chassis and cover for entry of hooks into cooperating pockets on movement of the cover into position for cooperation with the chassis in enclosing a volume.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a computer apparatus and method for assembly of a direct access storage device with such a computer and describes a direct attachment of an electromechanical storage device to the bus structure provided by a planar board or motherboard of a personal computer system. An electromechanical direct access storage device such as a magnetic or optical disk drive has a circuit board mounted therewith which provides a first connector capable of mating with a second connector mounted on the planar board. A chassis and mounting arrangement are provided by which an open bay in which the storage device is to be mounted is accessible from the front of the personal computer, and the device is guided into a position for mating engagement of the connectors while the circuit and planar boards are parallel.
