Folding the Keyboard
The Atlas supports a swiveling 11.6-inch touchscreen that can be used in several
different ways. Opening the device as a standard laptop gives you access to the
keyboard and touchpad, while folding the keyboard behind the screen turns it into a
tablet and disables the keyboard.
You can also prop up the notebook's screen in tent mode, which is ideal for viewing
videos and presentations.
