Abstract
A flat panel display housing includes a minimal border about the periphery of the front surface of the housing. The border has a relatively small thickness and only extends a minimal distance from the edge of the display housing. The housing also includes a mount centrally located on the rear surface of the housing thereby allowing the housing to be tiled. The housing may also be configured as an array or wall of glass without interstices between adjacent displays. The display housing also includes a recess in the rear portion of the housing which facilitates tactile location of display controls which are not visible to a user.
