I have a 27" iMac on the way and bought the adapter from Apple. I'm looking for suggestions on a good VESA wall mount that will work with the Apple VESA adapter. There is not too much information out there on people that have mounted iMacs to the wall with the Apple adapter and what wall mount they used.

I'm thinking this one will work:

Amazon.com: Sanus MT25-B1 Tilting Wall Mount for 26" to 42" Displays: Electronics

From what I understand, Apple's adapter is compatible with 100x100 VESA mounts. Anyone mounted an iMac to the wall using Apple's adapter? What VESA mount did you use?

What you linked to is a mount for some TVs with VESA 400x200, not VESA 100x100. You need something like
Newegg.com - Peerless SF632 Flat wall mount or Amazon.com: VideoSecu VESA 75/100 Wall Mount

I don't think that's necessarily true. The description says:

Universal mounting pattern including VESA 400 x 200 fits virtually any 26" – 42" LCD TV or monitor up to 100 lbs.
"Including", implies that it works with other patterns as well.

Thanks for the link - I'll check that one out.
