You make a clear case, except paying 20% of the cost of the device for a stand that sits on the desk seems ridiculous to me.
- philjohn 4y agoAs has been stated ad nauseam (and you seem to be ignoring) it's a red herring. You instead spend $200 for the VESA adapter and put it on a monitor arm. Which is reusable for your next monitor (and the monitor after that, and the monitor after that etc. etc.) Heck, I can't remember the last monitor I had that I kept the stand - it goes back in the box, and into storage until the warranty expires and then it goes in the trash. The Monitor goes on a VESA mount arm.
- gjvc 4y agoThe bully always accuses the the victim of what they themselves are guilty of. This chatter about VESA mount arms and if you buy them or not is irrelevant. The price of the monitor stand as stated by Apple what is being discussed.
- mlyle 4y ago20% of the cost of the device for a stand is probably typical in actuality-- just it's usually bundled. If it seems ridiculous, don't buy it-- most of us would be using a monitor arm for a monitor like this. It has a nice 4 bar linkage, bearings, etc. It's intrinsically not cheap and is made in extraordinarily low quantities.
