Abstract

A portable information handling system is assembled and disassembled by a keystone assembly that couples at an upper surface of the portable housing to overlap a keyboard assembly that covers processing components disposed in the portable housing. The keystone has an interior member that slides relative to an external member with latches of the interior member coupling to and releasing catches of the portable housing. A security lock that couples to a security cable at one side of the portable housing provides access to the interior member so that a press releases the keystone assembly and keyboard assembly, while insertion of a security cable prevents disassembly of portable housing.
