|
|
Hey all!
I want to mount my LCD Computer monitor in my "Chez Liz Studio North" booth to the wall.
I googled & there are SO many choices out there!
Those of you that have done this what do you use? Are you happy with it? _________________ Liz de Nesnera O.A.V. ~ Livin' The VO Dream!

Hi Liz,
I had thought about doing that once myself. I started looking around and yes, there is an incredibly overwhelming array of different types of mounts. Some that just mount straight to the walls, some with telescoping arms then also allow the screen to rotate 360°... you get the idea.
I finally found some reasonably priced screen wall mounts by browsing the Staples website. Check it out and see if there's anything there that might suit your needs.
Good luck!

Thanks!
Yeah, I want one that telescopes.
I'll take a look!
I went to my local Staples but they didn't have them...I guess it's an "online only" thing. _________________ Liz de Nesnera O.A.V. ~ Livin' The VO Dream!

liz.... Google "monitor mount". You'll find quite a few suppliers and options. Amazon has hundreds of mounts available. Newegg has a great selection, too.
Most critical is to make sure the mount you choose is compatible with your monitor. Most use the VESA mounting system, which is pretty standard. You can get both desk mounted and wall mounted options.
My favorites are made by Ergotron. Good stuff. _________________ Don Brookshire

Thanks guys!
Since I needed it yesterday (of course!) I went to Best Buy & they had one that I installed. Works great!  _________________ Liz de Nesnera O.A.V. ~ Livin' The VO Dream!
