I've looked at that exact stand but decided against it as it didn't really make a huge difference for the spend (stand and mount) whereas I already owned this tripod and only need a £15 boom arm.
What I really wanted I couldn't find... a cheap VESA shim to sit between the existing stand and monitor and to provide an extra place for a mount point for the camera.
My setup now looks like this.
I've swung the mic arm out of the way so the keyboard and panels can be seen.
But basically a lot of wood, plants, light, and space. Very little by way of cabling mess (given the unbelievable amount of cable there is here and the 12 power sockets in those two cable tidy boxes). The desktop on the left is the machine.
The only really weird thing going on is the camera... it's on a tripod on the desk to get that behind monitor position. It's on a boom arm which then needs counter-weighting with the dumb bell weight. It works, I don't notice it... and the camera is rock solid and stable.
So... what's in this picture?
