adjustable stand for desktop?

I have a 24" iMac. Even with my chair as high as it will go. My screen is too high. My eye level is barely above the middle of the screen. Do you know of a height-adjustable stand that I can replace my iMac stand with?

I loved the old iMac with the adjustable stand that came out of a half-circle base. It may not have been the prettiest iMac Apple ever made, but I mourned its passing. It could be adjusted to anyone's comfort. Shame on Apple for this solid stick that I am stuck with now.


I would appreciate any help you can give me.

The last iMac that had the articulated arm was discontinued in July 2004! Was your last iMac that old? The "solid stick" had been on iMacs for 18 years.


What is the height of your workstation surface? The work surface of older desks and tables used to be about 30 inches above the floor; modern computer desks, table and workstations are closer to 27 inches high for exactly the reason you encountered.


By the way, we are your fellow users. Apple will not see your "shame on..." comment here. To give constructive criticism that will be seen by an Apple employee, I invite you to use this product feedback link:

The VESA-capable iMacs that dialabrain mentions are here:

⚠️ Note that even with a VESA mount, the iMac MUST remain a minimum of about 2.5 to 3 inches above any horizontal surface to prevent the blocking of important cooling air intakes on the bottom edge of the case.
