So, I'm considering putting together a second pc to go along with Infernis, I had this in mind when I got my desk. I've got a pair of 19 inch LCDs on my desk, and I want to put a 22 inch widescreen on the wall just above these, my idea is to use a kvm switch to go from computer to computer. But I've never actually mounted one of these before, anyone got any tips?

If its Vesa certified which most are. you can easily buy a wall mount for a pretty
cheap price. Ill look around for you.

Like this for Instance Me never have done it myself I imagine its pretty easy.

If you haven't already, look into a wall mount.

Other tips: follow instructions on the packaging of the mount you choose? I don't know, I guess I don't have any tips. I imagine once you have something suitable for the mounting, it will be pretty straight forward, like hanging a picture or someting.

Also, not all of the stuff on that link is a wall mount. I just didn't really want to weed it all out, ya know :p?

make sure you use a strong steel mount... (I speak from experience)

I decided to get another one of these for the second pc, I've got a pair of them on my desk now for my main machine.

The bracket that comes in the combo deal is alright, but it's not adjustable, and that's kinda a pain, so still looking for something suitable.
