    Hi,

    I would like to be able to flip my 21" LCD monitor 180 degrees so as to have it in Portrait format. I understand the graphics card side of things but does anyone know where I can buy a stand that would allow me to do this.
    Thanks.

    Firstly it is 90 degrees you are looking at turning it. Secondly does your monitor have a VESA compatible mount on the back? I would imagine if it has one of those you should be able to get a stand for it easily enough.

    Im sure there are much cheaper versions around the place but something like this

    You could try elara.ie, dabs.ie and pixmania.ie for something a bit more basic and cheaper.

    Thanks alot Lu Tze. What am I thinking... course it 90 degress! My monitor is Vesa compatible. I had checked pixmania and dabs but I'll look again. I stopped using Komplett a while back and didn't even think of it to be honest so thanks for the tip.

    I wouldnt recommend them unless you can collect from pick up point and pay there.

    Got burned a while back, took a couple of months to get a refund from komplett. Had a quick look on pix and couldnt find anything really!

    Try Elara and Dabs - they often have the more "office-y" items lurking somewhere... ;)
