An electronic device having a cabinet which comprises at least a first cabinet segment having an opening for viewing a display unit therethrough, and a second cabinet segment for the first cabinet segment to be attached thereto. The electronic device comprises a spring member for biasing the display unit in one direction, a stopper member for restraining the movement of the display unit by the spring member, and a positioning member projecting from the rear surface of the first cabinet segment and cooperative with the spring member for holding the display unit therebetween when the first cabinet segment is attached to the second cabinet segment. The display unit or the positioning member is provided with a guide for moving the display unit against the biasing force of the spring member until a side face of the display unit comes into contact with a reference face of the positioning member when the first cabinet segment is attached to the second cabinet segment.
