Abstract
A portable information processing apparatus having a thin thickness and a lightweight. In the apparatus, a top bezel of a display device is made from a metal such as aluminum or aluminum alloy which has a large intensity a light weight and a good conductiblity compared to a plastic. The top bezel is electrically connected to a liquid crystal display module for electromagnetic shielding. The top bezel and the liquid crystal display module may be electrically connected to a hinge to improve a static electricity shielding effect.
