Provide is an input device that can be incorporated into a notebook computer that exhibits improved operability even in the case of including both a stick-type and a pad-type pointing devices. A Pad face of a pad-type pointing device is configured to incline against the horizon when a computer is used or against the operation face of a keyboard while lowering the keyboard side. A first button for stick-type pointing device, a guide member for fixing the pad face, and the pad face are configured to be adjacent to one another to make the height of the top surface of the guide member being almost as high as the top surface of the pressed first button. A button with a long stroke is used for a first button to improve usability.
