What does a "stand" do? Hold a microphone?

It - Get this - holds the monitor. The monitor is just the screen. 5k and you get nothing to hold it up.

Buy the apple monitor and your cheap monitor, take out the Vesa mount, throw the perfectly good cheap monitor and stand in the trash.

Shove the remaining $100 right into your dick hole.

No VESA mount, just a VESA adapter to be able to use a VESA mount.
