Abstract
A lightweight, protective case for a laptop computer includes an integrated, fold-out tilt stand. In a transport position, a stand component is received within a designated region such as a recessed cavity on the bottom of a keyboard shell component, and one or more stand retaining members. In a use position, the stand component extends outwardly from the bottom surface of the keyboard shell component, with the stand retaining member(s) in a straightened condition, thereby maintaining the keyboard shell component at an angle relative to a support surface. The stand retaining member(s) may be flexible or hinged, and including a magnetic or other structure for maintaining the stand component against the keyboard shell component when not in use. The upper edge of the stand component and/or the upper end of the stand retaining member may be hingedly affixed with flexible materials that extends through the keyboard shell component.
