[geeks] server stand for a 2U server

I'm in need of a way to use a 2U server I do embedded programming on,  
by putting it on a stand of some kind.

I don't have room for a desk, rack, or room in my existing computer  
cabinet for it.

Ideally I'd have something like I've seen in hospitals, where the  
computer was mounted on a pole with wheels, and there was space for a  
keyboard and monitor on top of that.  It was nice because it took up  
very little room even with a full desktop PC loaded on it.

I've tried to find a standard computer stand, but the 2U server is too  
flat for the ones I've found and didn't have a stable enough base to  
hold it up.

Any ideas appreciated.

I am probably not explaining myself quite right, but the basic idea is  
to put a 2U server on something that I can move easily and that takes  
up little space.

Flat space is at a premium in my office so vertical mounting seems the  
best bet.
