Altogether, Apple says this amounts to the iPad...
The fact that I even think a $20 piece of rag should be included with a $1600 monitor that needs a $400 option to gain height adjustment and the entire thing needs to be replaced with a new one if you ever decide to remount it in a different setting, just goes to show that Apple are becoming a parody of themselves.
