Dude you missed this one on the same site...it's a lot cooler I think, and it attatches to a desk so the crumbling wall won't matter!

...hope one of these will work for you. I'm waiting for the 30" Apple Cinemas to see what Apple will throw them out with...maybe a mounting option?!

what about just getting that silver wire that is used to hang pictures. double wrap it around the center piece in the back the put the screw holes where the monitor would cover. to compensate for the weight, just get a thicker gauge wire and the anchor drywall screws, depending on your walls.
to adjust the angle, get a piece of velcro, and some small L-brackets. stick the velcro to the back of the monitor near the top or bottom (depending how you may need to adjust) and then some on the L brackets. put T-nuts in the wall and some bolts through the L-brackets. when you tighten the T-Nut bolt, it will pull the top of the monitor, closer to the wall, thus straighten it out. you could conceal all this behind the monitor so you don't see it straight on.

D'oh I meant U brackets, Not L.

i went to a friend of a friends studio and he had a pretty original setup.
he had the 23" flat panel suspended from the ceiling using velcro strips around the monitor on both ends, then attacked to these suspension cables meant for turntables in clubs/dj booths, this was then on a track on the ceiling so he could move the monitor a few feet to the right or left, i'd imagine he could also adjust the height.
he works on music and has lots of old synths/drum machines set up around him which i guess is what he needs to move the monitor a bit.
it honestly wasn't the prettiest set up i must add. orange velcro straps around the monitor with cables running all over in the air. but the thing seemed stable, and it was cyberpunk looking as all hell.
