Claim:
1. A system comprising: a processor; memory operatively coupled to the processor; a first display unit that comprises a length, a width, a height and a first planar display operatively coupled to the processor; a second display unit that comprises a length, a width, a height and a second planar display; and a mechanism that selectively transitions the first planar display and the second planar display between a stacked orientation and a side-by-side orientation that forms a planar extended display operatively coupled to the processor wherein the mechanism comprises a rail guide operatively coupled to the first display unit and a widthwise rail that carries a linkage that comprises two pivot arms operatively coupled to the second display unit wherein, for the transitions, the widthwise rail is translatable via the rail guide in a widthwise direction, the linkage is translatable via the rail in the widthwise direction, and the two pivot arms are pivotable with respect to the linkage.
