Introduction

Let's start out by stating the blatantly obvious; LCD monitors have a huge benefit over CRT monitors in that they better utilize your desk's real estate. These days, you can have a rather large display sitting on your desk and still have plenty of room for your monitor's other desk-mates. However, sometimes having an LCD with a relatively small footprint is not enough. Depending on the situation, there may not be enough room on the desk or at your workstation for an LCD to co-exist with other important equipment. Or maybe you need to be able to position the monitor, or move it around on-the-fly with articulation exceeding what the monitor on its own can provide. These requirements are usually found in the workplace, but for some they may be equally important in a home office.

Monitor arms allow us to further reduce the already small footprint of our LCD, or even completely obliterate it. They also allow us to position the monitor in a location to best suit our viewing, which is especially important for ergonomics. And for those situations where there may be more than one person using the same computer from different locations around the desk, monitor arms allow us to swivel the screen into position with much more freedom than even the best stock LCD stands. Unfortunately, one of the downsides of monitor arms is that they can be quite expensive. This is why today we are taking a look at the Ergotron LX Desk Mount LCD Arm: a monitor arm that allows for a wide range of movement and reach, while maintaining a relatively low price-point.
