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

NOT impressed and wont recommend a HP7540 monitor

Advantages: Good colour display (WHEN MONITOR WORKS)
Disadvantages: SERIOUS problems with the buttons in front of monitor.

When I bought my HP 7540 montitor i was under the impression that HP is supposed to be a good brand. I should have known better to be honest. My monitor is not even 2 years old and i have a serious problem. The settings that come up when pressing the menu button on the monitor just comes up by itself and obviously stands in the way of any or every window in the background. Obviously that means i cant do ANYTHING unless i manage to get rid of that ...
...the problem in the end? I had to place a small toothpick between two of the buttons (the two on the left hand side) thereby "keeping them slightly apart" and the problem seems solved (for now) I doubt whether i will get a HP again. ...

Review of HP S7540

Great picture quality, big quality , BIG SIZE

Advantages: fantastic picture quality
Disadvantages: very deep, make sure you have a deep desk

This is a fantastic standard monitor for anyone. Business man in the office or an internet surfer at home. It has a screen size of 16".

Review of HP V72

hp monitor revolution!

Advantages: Simple to use; high quality resolution; tough; versatile, etc
Disadvantages: Heavy; bulky; large; takes up alot of space, etc

The hp pavilion mx70 is a fantastic computer! This is because it is versatile, tough, good quality and has a fantastic monitor resolution. However, I think that the main disadvantage with this monitor is that it takes up a lot of room, as it is extremely large. Also, it is heavy and hard to carry - by my standards anyway. It has a fantastic speaker at the top of the monitor, which in turn, produces good quality sound and I find it is very useful ...
...with them too. The brightness of the screen can be adjusted by pressing the button on the left side that has a small image of the Sun. The contrast can be adjusted by pressing the button next to the brightness button (right) - half of the image is a shaded circle. This monitor/screen is perfect for the beginner or experienced computer enthusiast, with its simple-to-use fuctions. It represents excellent value for money. ...

What tastes like strawberries and cream; The monitor displays detailed web pages and clean and concise text. It has a good screen quality however some colours and flesh tones appear slightly pale.
