The good: Decent image quality; includes video and audio inputs; stylish. The bad: Not HDTV compatible; no PIP function; few adjustability options; stiff tilt function; DVD playback is a mixed bag. The bottom line: This reasonably priced LCD has decent image quality and some nice extras, but it sacrifices some basics, such as adjustability. It could be a good purchase for someone on a budget. Brilliant color saturation and image clarity are all yours with this hard-working monitor. The contrast ratio is a very impressive 700:1 and the built in speakers make it easy to turn your computing area into an entertainment area. It's ergonomically designed to ensure comfort while viewing. This is a monitor for users who expect only the best in performance.
