PURPOSE: To improve the operability of touch or pen-inputting by providing a connecting means so that a cover unit can be placed on a system main body whichever the cover unit is placed with the surface having a displaying section downside or upside.
CONSTITUTION: A cover unit 4 is constituted so that the upper end faces of a connecting means 10, the cover unit 4, etc., can be flushed with each other when the cover unit 4 is closed. When the unit 4 is integrally rotated against a system 2 in order to mainly use the displaying function of a displaying section 6, the unit 4 becomes un-rotatable, because the unit 4 is latched by the connecting means 10 at a prescribed angle. When the latch section of a rotation controlling means 14 is pressed down in such a state, the unit 4 rotates against the connecting means 10. When the unit 4 and connecting means 10 are placed on the system 2 by integrally titling the unit 4 and means 10 forward after the unit 4 is sufficiently rotated to the rear side of the connecting means 10, the displaying section 6 is inclined at an appropriated angle from the horizontal plane and pen-inputting operating, etc., can be performed easily.
