Ah, I'm on a super-shallow desk at the moment, I needed to get the base up and off there! I used to have my work monitor up on a HTML 4 and a Macromedia Director book to get it up to height, best use I could come up with.
I've got this triple monitor stand.
Wanted it to be stand alone rather than attached to the desk.
It's heavy, chunky and obviously has a lot of adjustment points, but it's good and does the job once you've got it setup. Happily holds 3 x 24" screens
