Receipe for disaster?

Alright, before I say anymore, here's what my home Mac setup looks like now:



It's an Apple Macbook connected to a 24" Dell monitor with wireless keyboard and mouse. Pretty neat ey? Well guess what, IT'S MAKING ME GO FREAKEN BLIND!!! The Dell is just too big. That's right, too big. Notice the small desk it's on? Notice how close the screen is to the keyboard? I'm sitting too close to the damn thing. Also, the Dell is also too damn bright and I can't turn it down. Imagine staring at a flurosecent lamp for 30 minutes. That's what it like.

So ... here's the plan:

I buy one of those VESA monitor mounts (another) from here :

Radio parts

I drill some holes in the wall, mount the screen to it and move my desk back a few meters or so. Voila! Piece of cake.

The plan is rock solid. What could wrong??!?! Watch this space......
