1. A support apparatus for holding a monitor of a point-of-sale system, the support apparatus comprising:
a first side wall defining a first mechanical stop;
a second side wall defining a second mechanical stop;
a support member extending between the first and second side walls;
an elongate arm pivotally connected to the support member at a first end and configured to couple to a monitor of a point-of-sale system at a second end, the elongate arm being pivotable within a range of motion extending between the first mechanical stop and the second mechanical stop, such that in a first pivoting position the elongate arm contacts the first mechanical stop and in a second pivoting position the elongate arm contacts the second mechanical stop; and
a mounting member disposed at the second end of the elongate arm, the mounting member comprising a series of spaced receiving slots along the mounting member, wherein a corresponding protrusion on a receiving system coupled to a back portion of the monitor is selectively fitted into a selected receiving slot of the series of spaced receiving slots to hold the monitor in place.
