Default Elevated LCD display

For some reason I forgot to do this... earlier just fixed it...

I have a Chieftec BL-01B Newegg images here The monitor mounts directly to the case via a slide.

Now I cant afford any high end LCD monitors with awesome viewing angles... so Inow that I have the PC mounted above my head as a secondary monitor with my 28" below it... I had to go back to what I was doing when I used it as an HTPC monitor.

THose of you around LCDs much now that you can walk up to a desk and view the image perfectly. But looking from below the monitor up at it hte viewing angle goes to crap and the whole image is dark and out of focus.

So...

Mount the monitor upside down Use CCC (or nvCP I assume) and flip the monitor 180 degrees in landscape view.

Walla! You have a monitor that with a little tilt (double bonus with this the tilt angle is better "up" than down. so flipping it allows me even more tilt.) I have a perfect image despite the bottom of the monitor being 8-12" above my head

Normally I do 3 wide monitors on my desk but with the addition of the Polk book shelf (monitor 40) speakers and 28" monitor 6' just aint as big as it used to be
