Abstract Electronic equipment includes a protruding member on a bottom surface of a first housing. Thus, when a user holds a notebook PC with one hand, a palm is brought into contact with the protruding member, whereby the hand is less likely to shift relative to the first housing. Consequently, the notebook PC can be held in a stable position. Further, the protruding member is attachable/detachable with respect to the first housing. Thus, it is possible to place the electronic equipment on a planar surface such as a desk surface in a stable position by removing the protruding member.
