  • an electronic display, comprising an electronic display screen in communication with a printed circuit board substrate (PCB), the PCB having a processor and a display data receiver thereon;

    a camera or microphone for recording user commands or user actions, and speakers for playing audio, integrated on the PCB;

    a protective cover sized to cover substantially all of a front face of the electronic display, wherein the protective cover and the electronic display together form an assembled screen having a peripheral edge substantially perpendicular to the front face of the electronic display and running along the entirety of the assembled screen;

    a support frame covering the peripheral edge of the assembled screen and biased against the peripheral edge of the assembled screen, wherein the support frame is formed of wood or a material stylized to resemble wood, and is flush with front and back faces of the assembled screen; and

    at least one mounting bracket affixed to a back side of the support frame and coupleable to the cabinet base,wherein the processor is configured to generate signals to cause the display to produce a first cabinet mode image that corresponds with an appearance of the support frame and the cabinet base and creates visual continuity from a first end of the support frame to a second end of the support frame and the cabinet base in a first, low power state, and to produce image data different from the first cabinet mode image data in a second, higher power state.
