I want to turn a monitor into portrait on a VESA stand to view 1 full page of a Word document w/o scrolling. Do I need a 19" or 20" monitor? Thanks!

It depends on how big your toolbars are. To be sure I can view a document at 100% view with my 20" monitor.

No problem whatsoever. You'll have plenty of room to angle them any way you would like. My initial setup with this stand was three 21" monitors (all 1920x1080) on the bottom three posts along with one 21" monitor & two laptops taking up the three top spots (using two VESA laptop mounts). While 3 21" monitors BARELY fit (and no angle), they did fit (they were Asus IPS's). Currently I'm running a 27" on the lower center post with a 21" on each side (obviously all mounted vertically, ie 1080x1920), as well as two 21" up top (horizontally mounted). No problem whatsoever.

Yes. I use one of my monitors portrait for wen pages and the other screen landscape for games. If you try to do it with your hands you might loosen it too much. I recommend the tool that comes with it, just pop the cover off the side and tighten or loosen it.

The display may look small on the cart, but the cart will support the VESA mounts on the back of the monitor. The cart is VESA Compliant (Universal): 100mm x 100mm, 200 x 100, 200 x 200, 300 x 300, 300 x 400, 400 x 400, 500 x 400, 600 x 400. The cart functions as expected and I have purchased two of them. The welds are not nearly as exact as this more expensive Peerless model that we also purchased (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000NO6WOQ). It took weeks for us to receive this heavy duty cart. Our next cart purchase will be the Peerless model instead of this one.

I wondered about the same initially. Need took priority and gave it a try. I have not regretted my decision. I have no resolution concerns or issues. I run my monitors at 1920x1080 resolution without no "visual" issues whatsoever. I guess a lot depends on how good your computer's display output/card is. My laptops are pretty top-of-the-line so no complains here about image quality.

Amazon sent an info request and I looked at the monitor back and answered. Never gave it a thought. Tried to help. Forgot I returned that Samsung unit like yours with its 16/9 screen ratio. (to wide for height ) I bought Dell 16/10 ratio and love it. (U2412M) No negatives on the Samsung because I never even set it up. One look and back it went. Now, I get two pages almost 8 1/2 by 11 side by side and with 16/10 I like it better for photo work. The screen also rotates vertical.

Does it work in portrait mode just for browsing web pages? If yes, I will use it with a VESA vertical stand.

Really, it is all about pixels and display resolution. The monitor size often means larger pixels, not more of them. I bought 4 HP2011x monitors that I intend to use in a rotated fashion. However, The standard back mounting are not present on the HP2011x nor can you rotate the monitor on the stand that comes with the monitor. The HP2011x is a poor choice if you are looking for a monitor you can use rotated in portrait orientation.

A 24" monitor is the match to your card. This monitor is "wide screen" ... I'd predict it would look funky. If 1900x1080 is your vid card max, move up. Vid cards are cheap.

Well.I suppose it depends on whether or not your VESA MOUNT is dead center?My BenQ 24" at Max upright adjust is a hair over 9 3/4 from mount SURFACE>the illo looks close to scale-but that looks like a 20 incher-maybe 11 inches?

Absolutely fantastic for reading. I use it heavily for Microsoft outlook, word , excel, and PowerPoint. It's so nice to not see jagged ugly letters. I don't think I talk about that aspect of the monitor but I highly recommend it for readers of text. I put up a YouTube review if it helps just search out Asus mx239 eval. Hope that helps growth monitor I'm seriously considering getting a second one.

Duct tape, of course! Seriously, if you don't have a VESA-ready monitor (threaded holes on the back), then your monitor was not designed or intended to be mounted on such a stand. In practical terms, you are limited to using the stand that your monitor came with.

We have to measure the screen diagonally to find out the size. Also, you will need to determine if it will be 19W (wide) or a regular 19". I actually had to google my monitor model# to find out the correct size (after ordering the 19W in error). Hope I helped.

the one I received had only two positions, high for 19" and low for 17" monitors. it is not clear in the description but the stand is not infinitely adjustable between high and low. fortunately for my, the low position worked for me for my 19" monitor.

I am using this VESA compatible mount: VIVO Single LCD Monitor Desk Mount Stand Fully Adjustable/Tilt/Articulating for 1 Screen up to 27" (STAND-V001) The holes line up fine with the monitor and the mount arm supports the weight of the monitor without any issues.

I'm not sure what you are asking, but I can swing my 21 inch monitor up to over nine inches above my desk top, or down to touch the desk. I can also rotate it 180 degrees, or swing the monitor around backwards so anyone else can see what is on the screen. It is very versatile. Now I don't have to push the monitor backwards if I need to put a notebook on the desk because I can now simply slide the keyboard under the screen. It's great. It was fairly easy to install and adjust to match the weight of the screen. Well worth the money.
