Before I got th emonitor shelf I currently have On my desk, I used the D& 4th edition books for a similar purpose. Was the only good use those books ever had.

This is what I use. I have a 31" and a 27" monitor on the 36" model.

OK no approval yet on a converting desk, but do have approval to get an adjustable monitor stand for someone.

huh - so that single connection point to the desk feels sturdy enough with 3 monitors hanging off it?

Yup it is VERY sturdy! It has 2 motors and raise and lower it and can hold 300#

We have about 5 people here that use the varidesk thigns. They are quite nice. At my old job we had some users who had motorized desks, the entire thing would raise and lower at the touch of a switch. Quite expensive to install. But they were a kit so would work with just about any of the cube style desks that are built in sections.

The monitor stand is built for 3 27" monitors and is plenty stable on it's own. I have had it for almost 2 years now I think.

I like it too! Not sure if they have world wide shipping, here in Dubai we just have one decent one from IKEA but that the whole table.

Wow, only $65? Hmmm... I don't know that I can get this and then convince my wife that it looks dumb without another monitor on it, so obviously I'd need another monitor.

Well, ARK did just drop a new patch. Legit need.

I deployed a few of these, and the model that came before. They are under $500. They can hold 2 24" monitors if they have a narrow bezel. They worked well because the client had very heavy CAD rigs on the desk and just needed the monitors/keyboard/mouse to go up and down.

I'm not sure if there is just that much more metal in these types of mounts, which makes the price so high, but these types of rigs always seem to be about the most expensive.
And personally I really dislike the complete lack of additional workspace while standing. Now you have to stoop over to have a surface to write one, etc.
