biased so as to help ensure this versatility while keeping the peripheral device in a stable position non skid pad 108 in fig1 and 2 is shown in a position in which greater display bezel thicknesses can be accommodated by virtue of rotating platform 110 or more precisely a provision for relative rotational movement between pad 108 and platform 110 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention pad 108 can displace by 180 degrees with respect to the orientation shown in fig1 and 2 and thus create a smaller average clearance between pad 108 and boots 106 accordingly by selectively rotating pad 108 between these u201c greater clearance u201d and u201c lesser clearance u201d positions there will be afforded at each such position a given range of display bezel thicknesses that can comfortably be accommodated by virtue of the variability provided by the spring arms 104 presumably these different ranges of clearances can be exploited to permit boots 106 and pad 108 to grasp onto a display bezel therebetween however it should be understood that in the u201c greater clearance u201d position of pad 108 as in fig1 and 2 in accordance with a variant application of the embodiments of the present invention the mounting device can actually be a u201c stand alone u201d structure that can rest atop a particularly large computer monitor with a large.
