发明名称 Dividable Computing Device That May Split into Multiple Sub-Computers
摘要 A method for separating a dividable computer device into multiple sub-computers comprises receiving a command to separate a sub-computer from the dividable computer; the dividable computer detecting the separation of the sub-computer; and reconfiguring the dividable computer for operation without the sub-computer. Preferably, options for selection for association with the sub-computer to be separated are presented to the user. Predetermined features/functionalities may be loaded onto the sub-computer based on options related to entered characteristics of the user and/or a list of users. There may be a notification that the sub-computer is configured and ready for separation, whilst the reconfiguring may involve adjusting the display to minimize an effect of the separated computer. The sub-computer may be provided with a virtual operating system and/or may operate independently from the dividable computer. Separated sub-computers may be wirelessly connected to share resources. Each sub-computer may have processing unit, memory and interface connector.
