Large monitors would have mechanical and safety problems in portrait modes, or would need much heavier and bulkier support.
I don’t follow this at all.
Higher center of gravity, though I don’t have a feeling for how tall a monitor would have to be for this to be a problem.
If it pivots about the center of the screen, wouldn’t it necessarily have the same center of gravity? That’s how my monitor at work works, anyway.
That makes sense—I was thinking about finding a way to stand a landscape-oriented monitor on its edge rather than a sensible built-in feature.
Ah, yeah, that does sound ill-advised. Maybe that’s what the earlier comment was thinking too.
