Positioning your display too high can lead to unnatural viewing angles and chronic neck problems. Most tilt-and-swivel monitors lack even rudimentary height adjustments, but the 1-inch-thick Samsung SyncMaster 192T—a flat-panel display—boasts a uniquely designed cabinet and stand that support a full complement of positioning options. Besides allowing true vertical height adjustment, the SyncMaster 192T's rugged stand can be tilted 90 degrees and even folded back onto itself to become a thin-profile wall-mount bracket.

Everything else about the SyncMaster 192T is just as impressive, including its bright, crisp 19-inch LCD, DVI and dual analog RGB inputs, built-in stereo speakers, and clutter-reducing cable management system. Using anything less is likely to be a pain in the neck.
