A suspension system for suspending a computer or video monitor (201) beneath a work surface (102) includes a flexible harness (300) formed of plural straps which extend around the top, back and bottom of a monitor (201) to cradle the monitor in the harness (300). An adjustable gripping strap assembly (301d) is connected to the monitor (201) at its proximal end and includes a pivot assembly (400) for securing the monitor (201) to a bracket (307) including a pivot rod (402) on the underside of the work surface (102). The pivot assembly bracket (307) may be laterally adjustable to adjust the horizontal position of the monitor (201). Lateral suspension straps (301a and 301b) of the harness (300) may be connected to a fixed support on the underside of the work surface (102) or to opposed elongated angle adjustment arms (434) which are pivotally mounted on the underside of the work surface (102) and are adjustable with respect to spaced apart notched support brackets (436). Low profile or flat screen monitors (201f) may be supported by a shortened version of the harness or by a shallow pan shaped support member (601).
