Abstract

See full text

An enclosure for a computer system is disclosed, which has the capability of being used in a desktop, tower or rack-mount configuration. The enclosure includes side extrusions having a center portion and two end portions which are substantially perpendicular to the center portion. Foot grooves are located on the end portions and on the center portion near each corner, and center grooves are located along the wider center portion. Pliable feet may be slid into position into foot grooves of the end portions of both side extrusions, in the desktop configuration. The tower configuration may be obtained by installing support feet which wrap around the corner of the side extrusion, mating in both the foot grooves on the end portions and those in the center portion of the side extrusion. The disclosed enclosure also enables rack-mounting by way of rack slides mounted into the center grooves of the center portion of the side extrusions. Flexibility in deployment of a computer contained within such an enclosure is obtained by way of the disclosed construction.
