Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an exercise device. In one embodiment, an exercise device includes a first arm and a second arm opposing the first arm. The first arm includes a first arc portion, a second arc portion, and a third arc portion, wherein the first arc portion is disposed between and coupled to the second arc portion and the third arc portion, and the second arc portion and the third arc portion are equal in size and a duplicate image of each other with respect to an axis passing through a center point of the first arc portion. The second arm is coupled to the first arm via a pair of parallel bars. The first arm and the second arm are a duplicate image of each other, and the first arm, the second arm, and the pair of parallel bars form a quadrilateral frame.

A label display system includes a deployable label base to display labels, such as regulatory and/or certification marking labels, for an electronic and/or portable computing device. The deployable label base moves between a first position and a second position, where the labels are viewable in the first position, and where at least some of the labels are concealed from view in the second position. The deployable label base includes a first side to display labels and at least a second side to display labels. The deployable label base can be flexible and include or encase a security cable to secure the electronic and/or portable computing device.

Deployable label display system

Embodiments of the present invention secure docking stations, notebook computers and removable devices. In one embodiment, a docking station is provided. The docking station includes a base unit for engaging a computer and a lock including a lock mechanism, a key receptacle exposed in an opening on a side of the base unit, and a t-bar extending from the lock mechanism. The docking station also includes an ejection mechanism on the base unit, a lever arm having a first surface for engaging the t-bar of the lock, the lever arm rotating when the t-bar moves between a locked position and an unlocked position, and a sliding member, responsive to movement of the lever arm, that slides into a position to interfere with the ejection mechanism when the lock is in a locked position such that the ejection mechanism is disabled from releasing the computer from the base unit.

Securing computer equipment

An electronic or computing device includes an integrated graphical display and a power source, such as a battery, to provide power to operate the graphical display. A selectable shutdown control, such as an operating system shutdown control, is displayed on the graphical display, and when selected, initiates a process to shutdown the electronic or computing device. The device also includes a component, such as a graphical display controller or software application, to turn off the graphical display and conserve power when the selectable control is selected and before the process to shutdown the electronic or computing device is initiated.

Display device power savings

An input device, which is capable of changing the appearance of a display, includes a body made up of a cover and a base, a cable receiver, and a cable coupled to the cable receiver. The input device has a first mode with a first portion of the cable having a first length external to the input device and a second portion of the cable wrapped around the cable receiver. The input device also has a second mode with the first portion of the cable having a second length external to the input device less than the first length.

Input device with cable storage
