Abstract
The invention provides a pedestal for supporting a monitor. The pedestal includes a first base and a second base. The first base further includes a first supporting surface and a recess, while the second base further includes a second supporting surface. The second base is movably connected to the first base such that it can be reciprocated between a first position and a second position. The invention utilizes the reciprocal feature of the second base to increase the contact area between the pedestal and the desktop and reduce the total packaging volume of the pedestal and the monitor.
