I want to turn a monitor into portrait on a VESA stand to view 1 full page of a Word document w/o scrolling. Do I need a 19" or 20" monitor? Thanks!

No solution but one step away. Search customer reviews sitewide for: portrait monitor word document. There are many reviews of different monitors that discuss this. If you've never searched inside of reviews go to any product that has reviews and scroll down towards the bottom of the page. On the right is a special search box for just for reviews. Uncheck "Only search this product's reviews" and it will show every review on the site that contains your search words. Note that many monitors are VESA compliant yet a review is not necessarily going to mention it. I would try a variation on your search terms by leaving out words that will not likely be mentioned by a reviewer. They might just refer to it as a "mount" or say "I mounted it" and never mention VESA. There are also monitors that rotate on their own stand. Also you can view 1 full page of Word on any screen if you've zoomed out enough(CTRL while scrolling mouse wheel) so either size should work but it may be a question of comfort. Good luck to you.

Yes, the height is adjustable in portrait mode. I'd say add an inch roughly for the stand and thats about how tall. With the edges of the monitor taken into account it's probably around 23" tall.

It can go low - pretty much until the monitor touches the stand. I have a 24in. Asus monitor and when I bring it down, it touches the stand. FYI - you probably won't be able to use portrait mode with a monitor that side. Here are some pics for reference http://imgur.com/a/TecCc

Not at eye level, certainly not 2ft in any way I can figure. My landscape oriented 23" monitors are about 8" above the desktop. However, if you tilt the monitor back, you can stand and look down on the monitor. I frequently do this when drafting documents via Dragon - it may be psychological, but I feel like I think better on my feet!

14-1/4" horizontal from the post to the vesa. the top most position with the bracket fully contacting the post is 16-5/8" from top of desk to center of vesa. measure your monitor width and height, they shouldn't be no more than double those dimensions i just gave to the center of the vesa bolting to the monitor. (so 28-1/2" width and 33-1/4 height monitor should be your limit). it's a strong item holding my 24" Dell U2412M and i bounce my leg all day and it doesn't move. this is not a flimsy item, it is solid. got mine on 9/4/14 and no problems today 7/3/15.

The display may look small on the cart, but the cart will support the VESA mounts on the back of the monitor. The cart is VESA Compliant (Universal): 100mm x 100mm, 200 x 100, 200 x 200, 300 x 300, 300 x 400, 400 x 400, 500 x 400, 600 x 400. The cart functions as expected and I have purchased two of them. The welds are not nearly as exact as this more expensive Peerless model that we also purchased (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000NO6WOQ). It took weeks for us to receive this heavy duty cart. Our next cart purchase will be the Peerless model instead of this one.

The center of the monitor (using the base plate) can be raised to 18.5 inches. That puts the bottom of a 20" widescreen at about 12 inches above the desk top. Take about an inch off that if the post is mounted directly to the desk.

I'm not sure what type of configuration you have in mind, but this information may help (total dimensions as mounted on stand): 24"Wx18.5"Hx6.5"D. The front part of the stand extends 2" in front of the screen, and only has a width of 15" centered on the 24"W screen. I have been using this monitor at least 8 hours per day (telecommute), 5 days per week, and absolutely LOVE it.

It completely depends on the size of the monitor being mounted to the stand. A bigger monitor would be closer to the desk surface.

In Word 2013 I can view 2 pages side by side without scrolling if zoomed to 87% if the ribbon is hidden, and 80% if the ribbon isn't. The viewable area is approximately 21 1/4" by 12 1/4". You would need roughly a 30.6" monitor (assuming it was still a 1080 resolution) to view two word document pages, side by side, without scolling, zoomed to 100%, with the ribbon visible. Which would be a /huge/ screen.

I have not tried it myself, but I have put a 22 in the center an 19's around it - there is no vertical adjustment, all VESA patterns are level so if the monitors have different height from center to VESA mount center it most likely will be a mess.

No, the stand is too short for vertical use. The stand has a custom bracket that only goes on in the normal orientation. However, the are standard mounting threads in back of the monitor, you can use a custom stand.

Well.I suppose it depends on whether or not your VESA MOUNT is dead center?My BenQ 24" at Max upright adjust is a hair over 9 3/4 from mount SURFACE>the illo looks close to scale-but that looks like a 20 incher-maybe 11 inches?

My friend, I can tell you that 1920 X 1200 there is no problem, there are more space in desktop, this is not determinant. But I can't tell you if an specific application have any problem working with this resolution. The better resolution to work is 1440×900 for retina. In my opinion retina display it's awesome. I hope I could help you with something.

The lower screw of the VESA mount ranges from 5 1/2 to 10 1/2 inches above the base of the stand. So you can measure how your monitor will fit. I use 24 inch 1920x1200 monitors in either landscape or in portrait mode with no problem. The portrait mode still sits completely vertical just above the stand base.

Hello Michael,I think one need to play with the different viewing angles and see what works best. Sometimes I switch angles because of wanting to change my sitting position, other times, it depends on what application I'm actually using wit hthe product. As was mentioned already, a monitor mountign arm works wonders in finding that perfect viewing angle.- C.

There is no mounting stand for this panel. So, if you are looking for a desktop solution, you need to buy some type of third party mounting. If you connect using the VGA input, the screen will support various resolutions up to 1920 x 1080. The HDMI interface does not work as well. HDMI will give you max resolution of 1920 x 1080 with few options.
