A stowable monitor life apparatus is described. The invented lift apparatus employs two different biasing mechanisms for deployment of a monitor support structure, thereby reducing the space required to house the apparatus with its associated monitor while promoting quick and easy deployment and stowage of the monitor within the system's housing. Preferably, the biasing mechanisms take the form of a pivotal gas spring in combination with a coil spring, whereby the coil spring acts along a generally vertical axis to partially deploy the monitor support structure and to pivot the nominally horizontal gas spring into an inclined orientation that enables it to complete the lifting of the monitor support structure. Thus, the two springs assist one another upon manual deployment via a pushbutton release mechanism. By pivoting the gas spring from a nominally horizontal orientation in which it exerts no upward force on the monitor support structure to an inclined orientation in which it exerts substantial upward force thereon, quick deployment is obtained while substantial vertical space savings are realized.
