i wouldnt worry about an LCD Pivot, you can always mount it to the wall with a bracket.
something like this is what i use for my acer 22"

just got the acer 2216 and i really like it, i did a lot of reading and really wanted a 24" but not with all the little problems they have, so i dropped to a 22" and this imo is the best choice for this size monitor
ive been reading, and reading these forums but never really post because i never really have a clue.
but i research to learn,
i would love a 24" LCD but i dont want a panel that is having issues, i will wait until the manufactureres come out with something better than whats out now...
