The display is typically part of an electronic apparatus, such as a laptop computer, portable DVD player, gaming machine and the like. The invention device includes at least a top panel and two side panels. The invention device also includes a gap bridging mechanism, which can be embodied in a variety of structures. The gap bridging mechanism bridges any gap formed between one or both side panels and the top panel resulting from the lateral or horizontal adjustment of these panels.
