The chassis comprises a base portion, and a frame portion removably mounted to the base portion. The monitor is mounted to the frame portion in precise locational relationship thereto to form a frame/monitor unit that can be dismounted or mounted relative to a chassis base portion. The base and frame portions include mutually engageable positioning projections for precisely locating the frame portion with respect to the base portion.
