I'm after one of those articulated arm tilt and swivel brackets to fix to the wall and free up a bit of desk space. It'll be holding up a 24" monitor (if/when I get one) with suitable VESA holes.

There are loads out there on 'tinterweb, so I thought I'd ask here to see if there are any things I should be looking for or to avoid. Anyone got a particularly good one or bought a lemon?

Ideally I'd like one that can have the tilt adjusted easily (tool free) as the 'puter will be used by people of different heights - this information is strangely lacking on Amazon. Bracketsrus have more info.

I've got one with an iMac attached to it. can't remember what it is - feels kinda wobbly but solid. Also I could only get 2 out of the 4 wall bolts to seat into solid bits of my wall (damn crumbly old grit!), but i figured that as the Mac only weighs about half the rated maximum load for the mount it would be fine.

Can't find the exact thing i bought but it's very similar to this:

If you are able to supply me with your bank account number and sort code, I can release my undying funds and suitable re-imburse you 20% of the total, plus civil service daily subsistence rates for your trouble. furthermore, my most honourable brother (reg) has most incredible experience of sourcing flexible-arm monitor wall securing fastening attachments.
