I'm amazed that people actually like these imac like displays. No rotation, fixed height and the stand takes a ton of space. A mounted VESA arm is such a nicer

  > A mounted VESA arm is such a nicer experience I previously had many negative associations with VESA-mounted monitors, and I think other people have as well, due to poor-quality mounting arms. I've used VESA-mounts where monitors bounced every time someone walked by; that's a serious issue. When I started working from home full-time, I set up a high-quality VESA-mount system using a pole mount and a professional monitor arm; the service I purchased it from actually looked up the monitor specs to figure out the level of support the arm required. The resulting setup is rock-solid and always stays exactly where I place/tilt it. So I do think VESA-mounting can provide a great experience, but the difference between cheap and high-quality can make or break the resulting experience.

  I specifically ordered the VESA iMac model because of both the limitations of height, etc, and the space on your desk that is freed up by using a mounting arm.

  It rotates. The stand just rotates with it. I'm not just being cheeky, it's actually pretty easy to move around. The stand is so thin and flat that I liked having it be a place where I slide in my keyboard when I want some desk space. My main workstation is currently a PC with monitor on an arm, but honestly, I found the iMac to be a cleaner setup. Literally the only display-related issue would be height adjustment, but that wasn't a problem for me.
