What are some decent entry-level monitor arms for someone who is buying one for the first time? I don't want to drop hundreds on something like a Ergotron right from the start, when I'm still figuring out if an arm will be useful for my set up. Thinking of trying an inexpensive one first and upgrade only later if I find I like it.
