Getting my MBP this weekend.

I need a good stand, i'm replacing my desktop system with it so I'll be using a seperate keyboard and mouse.

My main display is going to be a 24" Dell 2407FPW.

I want to use the laptop as a secondary display.

Anyone recommend me anything?

The iCurve looks pretty nice but kind of expensive for just a piece of plastic

Another vote for the icurve... Sure: It's expensive for just a bit of shaped plastic, but seeing as how I use it every single day, I feel it's worth it.

See if you can get a second hand icurve from ebay or somewhere, as you said it's just a piece of plastic so not much can go wrong with it. Well worth the investment in my experience
