A safe and stackable molded plastic chair having a structurally reinforced molded plastic body portion comprised of an integral seat and back rest employing generally curvilinear lines. An integral molded plastic mounting boss, having a hole formed therethrough, is formed on each corner of the seat. An arch-shaped, tubular plastic leg element having two legs is attached to each side of the seat by bolts inserted through the holes in the bosses. The bolt head seats in a recess formed in the boss. The bolt engages an arcuately shaped combination brace and fastener element situated with the tubular leg adjacent each mounting boss. During assembly, the brace and fastener element is positioned within the tubular leg by a removable, elongated magnetic or threaded rod until the bolt is sufficiently tight to draw the leg against the boss. The rod is removed leaving no exposed mounting hardware. A plug is inserted in the open end of each leg and a plastic sleeve covers the plug and leg end.

A series of enhancements to a digitizing pad, information overlay and input selector, which are used as input devices for many computer-aided design programs, eliminating operator fatigue caused by conflicting lighting requirements, viewing levels and focusing distances required for the digitizing pad and computer screen. The use of fluorescent color for symbols on the information overlay, illuminated by black light, provides an information overlay which can be used in the same low light which is best for computer screen reading and which closely simulates the background and contrast of the computer screen. The active area of the input selector, called the window, is also outlined in fluorescent color to facilitate use in the low light environment. The information overlay is viewed through a mirror which can be adjusted to the same height as the computer screen. These enhancements create an information overlay which can be viewed in the same lighting environment at the same eye level, with the same contrast and the same focal length as the computer screen, but which may be operated without raising the hand or input selector off the desktop.
