    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a functional portion provided at an upper surface of a main body, and a hinge portion which couples a display unit to the main body, and includes a first shaft and a second shaft. The display unit is rotatable about the first shaft to change its state between a first state in which it covers the upper surface and a second state in which it is opened to expose the upper surface. The display unit is also turnable about the second shaft with respect to the main body. Furthermore, the display unit is set in a third state in which it covers the upper surface in such a way as to expose the functional portion, when it is downwardly rotated about the first shaft after being turned about the second shaft while being in the second state.
