An electronics subassembly for a computing device that receives a pressing force from a user is disclosed. The electronics subassembly is mounted in the computing device using fasteners that are aligned parallel to the pressing force to prevent unwanted flexure of the electronics subassembly. The orientation of the fasteners requires holes to be form in a direction that is not suited for a standard tool. As a result, the manufacturing method includes forming the holes through an aperture in a sidewall of the housing of the computing device so that the bulk of the tool used for drilling is not constrained by the interior dimensions of the housing.
