In a portable electronic apparatus, a second keyboard to be manipulated with a right hand is joined to a first keyboard unit including a first keyboard to be manipulated with a left hand so that the second keyboard can be turned down. A display unit having a built-in liquid crystal display is joined to the first keyboard unit so that the display unit can be tuned down. When the display unit is turned down, the display unit engages with the second keyboard unit that is turned down. When all the parts of the electronic apparatus are closed, the electronic apparatus serves as a CD player of a CD jacket size. When the display unit is opened, the electronic apparatus has not only the capability of a DVD player but also the capability of a simple personal computer. When all the parts are left open, the electronic apparatus serves as a personal computer having a full keyboard.

The electronic apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the first hinge includes two shafts, that is, a first hinge shaft coupled to the first keyboard unit, and a second hinge shaft coupled to the second keyboard unit. 3. The electronic apparatus according to claim 2, wherein owing to the first hinge having the two shafts, the first and second keyboard units are engaged with each other when the second keyboard unit is turned down, and the first and second keyboards are flush with each other when the second keyboard unit is opened. 4. The electronic apparatus according to claim 3, wherein when the second keyboard unit is opened, the face of the first hinge is flush with the faces of the first and second keyboard units. 5. The electronic apparatus according to claim 4, wherein when the second keyboard unit is turned down to engage with the first keyboard unit, the back of the first hinge is flush with the flanks of the first and second keyboard units. 6. A portable electronic apparatus comprising: a first keyboard unit that includes a first keyboard; a second keyboard unit that is joined to the first keyboard unit via a first hinge so that the second keyboard unit can be engaged with the first keyboard unit a display unit that is joined to the first keyboard unit via a second hinge and that has a built-in display; a remote controller connection terminal; and a first control unit that, when the power supply of the electronic apparatus is turned on and if the display unit is closed, instructs the electronic apparatus to reproduce data from a disk according to an operational instruction entered at a remote controller connected via the connection terminal; and a memory unit storing a first operating system, a second operating system that provides the electronic apparatus with a larger number of features than the first operating system does and software that controls reproduction of data from a disk and that runs on the first operating system, wherein when the power supply of the electronic apparatus is turned on, if the display unit is closed, the first control unit reads the first operating system and the software, which controls reproduction of data from a disk, from the memory unit. 7. A portable electronic apparatus comprising: a first keyboard unit that includes a first keyboard; a second keyboard unit that is joined to the first keyboard unit via a first hinge so that the second keyboard unit can be engaged with the first keyboard unit; a display unit that is joined to the first keyboard unit via a second hinge and that has a built-in display; a remote controller connection terminal; and a first control unit that, when the power supply of the electronic apparatus is turned on and if the display unit is closed, instructs the electronic apparatus to reproduce data from a disk according to an operational instruction entered at a remote controller connected via the connection terminal; and a memory unit storing a first operating system, a second operating system that provides the electronic apparatus with a larger number of features than the first operating system does and software that controls reproduction of data from a disk and that runs on the first operating system, wherein, when the power supply of the electronic apparatus is turned on and if the display unit is open and the second keyboard unit is open, the first control unit reads the second operating system from the memory unit. 8. A portable electronic apparatus comprising: a first keyboard including a bottom having a front end portion, a rear end portion opposing the front end portion and a first keyboard; a first hinge; a second keyboard unit joined to the first keyboard unit, via the first hinge so that the second keyboard can be turned down, a second hinge; and a display unit including, a built-in display, joined to the first keyboard unit at a side of the rear end portion of the first keyboard via the second hinge, the display unit being designed to engage with the second keyboard unit, which is turned down, when being turned down on the second hinge, wherein: a flank of the display unit on the side of the second hinge is formed as an inclined surface that meets a side of the display unit, which is opposite to the side thereof on which the display is exposed, at a predetermined angle; and when the display unit is opened with the rear portion side of the bottom of the first keyboard unit placed on a plane, the display unit is open to the greatest extent with the inclined surface abutted on the plane and meets the first keyboard at the predetermined angle. 9. The electronic apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the first keyboard and second keyboard constitute a keyboard having keys arranged in a predetermined manner. 10. The electronic apparatus according to claim 8, further comprising a drive circuit that, when the display unit is opened, drives the display included in the display unit. 11. A recording medium in which a program to be run in a portable electronic apparatus is recorded, wherein: the electronic apparatus has a second keyboard unit joined to a first keyboard unit, which includes a first keyboard, via a first hinge so that the second keyboard unit can be turned down; a display unit having a built-in display is joined to the first keyboard unit via a second hinge; the display unit engages with the second keyboard unit, which is turned down, when the display unit is turned down on the second hinge; the electronic apparatus has a built-in disk drive; the program detects whether the display unit is open or closed when the power supply of the electronic apparatus is turned on, and instructs the electronic apparatus to control the operation of the disk drive according to whether the display unit is open or closed. 12.
