So I got a new monitor so I have dual monitors now, and one of them is shorter then the other, I have a 22 inch and a 20 inch because i got the 20 inch one for 35 bucks. I am looking for some kind of stand that I can put them on and level them out a little bit. Has anybody ever used something like this:

Or would it be better to just get like a 2 inch stand for my 20 inch monitor?
 
for what you going to spend on a stand just buy another monitor and keep the 20 for back up
 
I use a 2 inch book and it works wonders! unless you don't have a stand at all on it.

Then again my monitors are 24" and 23"

This is true. I was recently looking at stands to support 3 monitors..but holy fuck they want more money for the stand than what I would spend on 3 monitors...

Yea I got this monitor for a steal though, and really dont want 3 lol. Dont have enough room on my desk for 3 monitors.

On another note, its odd the tri monitor older is cheaper then the double lol
 
wow thanks never been to that site befor
 
due to the dimensions/weight of these things, they usually attach to a desk (unless you want a really big tri-pod type stand)
 
$50-$60 is far cheaper than a new monitor. The reviews off Amazon for those stands are pretty good, and I think worth a shot. They do bolt/clamp onto the your desk though, just FYI.

I've got a 19" and 20" wide screen monitor, and the 19" I was going to position vertically, next to the 20". Ended up just using my 46" LCD TV for a monitor instead, but I would have bought the stand from Amazon if I were going that route.
 
Yea I know they clamp onto the desk, but im not sure how well they clamp onto the desk? I have a glass desk and it would be awesome to get one of these things to clamp onto my desk and to hook my monitor into them. Would save a ton of room on my desk and make it look a lot better!

I keep looking at the 2 monitor holder from amazon, even though is 100 bucks, seems like it could be a good investment if it works good!
 
I'd be leary on a glass desk. I just forsee clamping it down too tight, and the glass crack. Or the monitors get hit too hard, hence putting too much pressure on the glass, and again, the glass cracking/breaking.
