A ratcheting articulable monitor support system accommodates storage and presentation of an associated monitor, and is usable with a base and a monitor-mounting member. The system includes an arm with a first end and second end, wherein the first end is pivotally mounted to the base allowing rotational movement of the arm about a first axis and in a first plane. The arm has a range of rotational motion as a result of the pivotal mounting, and that range is characterized as having an arm-rotational-movement-restricting subrange. The system also includes a ratchet member fixedly attached to the arm intermediate the first and second ends, which ratchet member includes a body with a first subregion having arm-rotational-movement-restricting structure. A detent member is also included adjacent the ratchet member and fixedly attached to the arm intermediate the first and second ends. The detent member includes an operative end that is movable to engage the arm-rotational-movement-restricting structure of the ratchet member, and such engagement occurs when the arm is rotated in the arm-rotational-movement-restricting subrange. There is also a monitor support system that allows four degrees of movement within the system. Further, one embodiment is constructed to allow for the simultaneous use of a tray table and the monitor support system.
