Is there a stand to allow genie to sit vertically?

I read that the genie should not have any issues sitting vertically but is there a stand that will help support it?  My space is limited under my tv.

Genie boxes (HR34, HR44, HR54) were not designed to sit vertically. As such there is no stand from DirecTV.

Mini Genie Clients (C31, C41, etc.) do not have a traditional hard drive as are extensions of the Genie so are smaller and built to go vertical, even mounted on a wall or back of a TV if needed.

Genie-2 (HS17) is a headless server tower that sits by itself. It can only sit vertically as such. However it doesn't go on a TV, instead it feeds Clients to every TV. It does not allow HD or HDDVR receivers on the account.
