Is this monitor heavy?

I want to get a monitor arm for a BenQ BL3200PT but apparently its 30 pounds. It says on amazon a "Heavy Duty" Arm is max 20 pounds.  Am i missing something? Is this monitor bigger than a house? I just want a clean look with a arm.

That's probably the shipping weight, including the box and packaging materials, and the stand which won't be used if you're mounting it on an arm.

BenQ lists the weight of the monitor with the stand at a little over 28lbs. This is the NET weight. Digging through some amazon questions for this monitor BenQ replied to one that the monitor without the stand is about 22-23 lbs. It is safe to say that this monitor is 23 pounds. So its up to you if you want to put it on something rated for 20. But I'm _sure_ you could get away with it (i sure have..)
