      Long story short, I was tasked with getting a monitor for our receptionist. The reception desk is white, so are the walls, and as you may have guessed it... I need to find a white/silver color monitor which is mountable.

      The criterias are it needs to be White, versa mountable, DVI or above, and 27" only.

      These criterias eliminates 90% of available options. So far I have found some, but they are either discontinued or out of stock.
      I am opened to painting... or drilling to install versa mount plate... but management may not like the idea very much.
      Here's an example that is out of stock

        I'd probably just look at TV's and not monitors for this.

        I haven't seen a different colored monitor in almost 10 years. . .

            @stess do you not have a vendor rep that you can make do all this busy work? That is what they get paid for.

            That said, the list I posted yesterday of 30 inch monitors had one of them is white. So they definitely still exist.

                @stess regarding mountable, you would never consider "drilling "your own that is just crazy stupid liability.

                    Gjacobse's link pointed to Versa Mount adapter. I am looking to see if management is open to an adapter.
                    Here's the combo:

                    Should looks something like this:

                    If this doesn't work... management has to change the color to something else.
                    Thanks guys!

                        Hrm... didn't see that in the pictures, but if its there.

                        (this isn't against the hardware designer) but damn that thing looks rickety, I'd be afraid of the monitor falling off of it.

                          Well I don't disagree that painting the mount isn't an option, seems like a lot of effort.

                          Why not find a silver VESA arm?

                            It's silver arm. Those pictures are from the comment section.
