AFAIK if it's VESA complaint you can remove the stand and get bracket for it, to hang it on a wall

Dead on. Any VESA compliant monitor (nearly all of them) can be attached to a wall by any VESA wall-mount of the right size. I think most monitors are 100 size. You can get a bog standard wall-mount with no tilt, swivel or distance adjustment for about £10-15, and if it's a small mount that will be perfect. I used to use one when I had a very shallow desk flush to the wall and it freed up a surprisingly huge amount of desk space.

The blog should tell you, as already said most new TFT'S are compliant. Or if you look on the back of the monitor you will see four screw holes (in a large square shape).
