Multiple monitors on an arm mount for a desk?

Post by []V[]essenjah »

Hey, just recently started setting up a new home-office desk for both work and play. I needed a lot more space and found a nice glass desk on sale at the local Office Max for $100. It's really spacious and you can buy it in sections. I'm planning to buy a second desk and a corner-piece so I can link them all up into one really big corner desk next week. Anyway, my only disappointment is that I run dual monitors (I hope to run triple soon) on top of a shelf, where these will be now sitting down low. I was wondering about maybe using an arm mounting system for monitors that attaches them to my desk? Anyone know about these? Any affordable ones out there that are decent? Say $100-$200 range?

Why go arm-mounts? Just get a couple of monitor risers. That's what I've done at my last three workplaces; keeps the monitors up high, and the ones that have a bit of storage underneath can be really handy.

Glass desk? Might have an issue with that unless the clamp is specially designed to prevent disrupting the breaking point(tempered glass) since the edges are the weakest point.

I seem to have a better workout dodging your stupidity than attempting to grasp the weight of your intelligence.
