Abstract

A monitor stand includes an upper support member (100) for supporting a monitor thereon, and a lower support member (200). The lower support member comprises a fixed piece (270), a slidable piece (210) slidably attached to the fixed piece for supporting a notebook computer connected to the monitor, the slidable piece being slidable in a first direction, a clutch (243) movable between the fixed piece and the slidable piece in a second direction generally perpendicular to the first direction to selectively engage the fixed piece so that the slidable piece is tightly held in place relative to the fixed piece, and a button (250) enabling the clutch to be disengaged from the fixed piece so that the slidable piece is free to slide relative to the fixed piece.
