    (b) at least one horizontal piece which is height adjustable, said horizontal piece having a latched position and an operating height such that in said latched position said separable section top surface and said fixed section top surface are co-planar and at said operating height said separable section top surface is in a plane parallel and not co-planar with said fixed section top surface;

    (c) a hinge means interconnecting said horizontal piece and said separable section for allowing said separable section to be moved between said closed position and said open position such that in the open position said separable section provides a working surface, said working surface extending at least partially in front of said frontal edge of said desk top such that when viewed from above said desk top and said working surface form an approximate "L" shape;
