Abstract

A system can include a display device that includes a rectangular housing that includes two short sides, two long sides, and a back side that includes a first arrangement of magnets located centrally at a long lever arm distance from each of the two short sides and a short lever arm distance from each of the two long sides; and a stand that includes a base, a flap and a hinge that couples the flap to the base, where the flap includes a second arrangement of magnets, wherein the first arrangement of magnets and the second arrangement of magnets provide an asymmetric magnetic attraction force that couples the rectangular housing to the flap, and where the asymmetric magnetic attraction force between the display device and the stand is weaker at the long lever arm distance and stronger at the short lever arm distance.
