How thin is your 17"?

If it's thin enough, you could remove the stand and put it on hinges on the side of your case (opposite the side your monitor is on) and swing it out when you're on your computer, so it's on your left/right, right next to you, as opposed to taking up more desk space. Plus, if done right, it could look very, very nice.

So if you put your case on the right side of your monitor, you could have the LCD hinged on the right side of the case - that way you can mod the left side with whatever sort of windows you're going to do, and still have them visible while using that LCD.

Also, $75, and that was just the first hit off Google - I'm sure you could find cheaper.
