Arrrgggghhhhh! (Always wanted to say that!)
The replacement 12" PB for my old one that was run over hasn't arrived yet. I didn't think it would seem like an eternity but it does.
I'm using an iMac in the meantime and now my neck is killing me. The screen just doesn't seem to move as much as I need it to. I can't seem to get it low enough for my gaze/chair/table combination.
Please, does anyone have any iMac furniture setups; either commercial products or hand-made, that are comfortable?
Any suggestions?

SallyF--
I assume you mean an older "teardrop" iMac, not one of the newer, flexible models.

Beats me. It's got a "breast-like" bottom, a 17" flat screen on a movable tube and separate keyboard and mouse.
It looks real nice but I've never used it for any length of time before and in use it's not very comfortable.
I looked at something called an iGo but that looks like you'd go from the frying pan to the fire.

Seems like you have a recent iMac try sitting a little higher and lowering your screen a little bit, I dont think you could duplicate the setup of a laptop with an iMac. You might also be able to sit the iMac on a chair and raise the neck above the table you use, that might get the job done, but I doubt it.

Thanks.
I switched to a narrow table, clamped a board to the back-end of the table and put the base on it so it was about 6" lower and raised my chair height. Better but not great.
