unfortunantly many monitors use the VESA plate to attach the stand to the monitor, so it's not available to mount this system on. it would be _very_ interesting if they could engineer the mounting screws so that it could attach the the back of the monitor and have the mounting plate attach to it (assuming that the balance of the monitor remained acceptable)

I'm very glad to see items like this get publicity, this sort of thing will work well for a large percentage of users. Linux can make systems like this very useable while anything newer than windows 98 or so won't work well on these specs.

Or supply special screws that can go through the E2's case, through the stand and into the monitor back. That way the balance is more likely to be evened up, since LCDs are usually front-heavy.
