HP Pavilion Monitor-great value

Advantages: Clear, crisp picture
Disadvantages: Heavy, HUGE, not flat

This monitor came with my HP Pavilion M50 computer system I bought some five years ago. It's a 13 inch monitor and is, of course, made for the HP Pavilion M50 system, but is compatible with other towers. (duh) First off, for the whole system, we paid $99.99 for the whole system. You can buy the monitor, which is 6 years old, for about $25 now. It features detachable external speakers, a microphone (in the top face), an on/off button, four different ...
...and a swiveling base which allows you to move the monitor up and down for better viewing. In this day and age, this monitor is very DEEP. It measures 16 inches deep, making it difficult to fit into many computer desks. With the speakers attached to the sides of the monitor, it is 20 inches wide. It is also 15 inches tall, including the base. It is quite large and heavy. So far, I have logged approximately 7500 hours with this monitor and have had ...

Review of HP Pavilion M50

Smaller sturdy little beast

Advantages: Cheap and reliable
Disadvantages: still a weight

...have only 3 of the Compaq V70 model. This is almost identical to the V75, just a little bit smaller. OK when you look at the thin LCD type monitors that are becoming more and more common, you might ask why are we still using these, and why will we probably continue to use these for a long time to come. Although my employers have probably not given this consideration in a previous review it was pointed out to me “that Its interesting to note that ...
...small when compared to the Compaq P1210 it is still a fairly sizeable monitor. Yes it has it does have a flat square display. It is nearly as deep as it is wide. Although I am not one to give you a review stuffed full of technical bits, to get a better idea of the actual size I have included the following the following, the screen is 16” (corner to corner). The dimensions are approx 16 1/2” wide, 17 1/2” high and 17 1/2” deep. The weight comes in ...

Review of Compaq V70

CTX Value Monitor

Advantages: Cheap, Nice looking, Quite good quality
Disadvantages: power button was stuck when i bought it

I bought this for a PC i was building for a family member. The monitor is quite nice to look at and the display is as crisp as some dearer monitors. It is quite compact for it's monitor type and fits perfectly on a standard computer desk. I have upped the refresh rate to 75mhz and this seems to have sharpened up the display. The monitor had all relevant cables included and seems a bargain at just over £70, i would reccomend this monitor to someone ...
...not want to use a low quality TFT screen. I will now be using this monitor type on all my new pc builds. I have had just the one slight problem with this monitor, when it was delivered the power button was jammed in, simply pressing the button released this and i have not experienced the same problem again. ...
