Advantages: Very good picture Disadvantages: Takes up a lot of space.
...typing this opinion, is the Gateway EV910 monitor that came as part of my £1400 PC package from Gateway. This monitor, (I may have only had since Christmas) has proven to me that it was certainly worth the replacement of PC. While the main differences are obvious from my CTX 15’ and my Gateway 19’ (Size); the monitor came with a whole load more of advantages that I never thought that I would have gained, and also some disadvantages. On ... ...comparing the monitor to my 3-year-old, 15 inch monitor, you will instantly notice a dramatic improvement in the picture. The colour and contrast are brilliant on this monitor, and more notable the picture is incredibly sharp. This does feel a little easier on your eyes, which maybe just me, but it just makes the PC experience so much better. Noticeably this 19-inch monitor is brilliant for games, giving you more to look at when playing. Those who ...

Advantages: Nice picture, shame about the longevity! Disadvantages: When it dies on you after the 12 month warranty - its useless!!!
I bought a Gateway EV-700 monitor just 14 months ago as part of a Gateway 650 Performance system. Whilst the PC system has been excellent, I have been very disappointed with ther monitor's reliability.
The monitor itself gives an excellent picture. The visible screen size of 15.9 inches is great. The panel at the front of the screen to adjust the various screen parameters is quite flexible, and is hidden from view behild a nice spring loaded door. ... ...screen went totally dead. The Gateway technical support people did not want to know when I contacted them. My local Gateway store from whom I bought the PC system basically said "hard luck - but we can supply you with a new monitor at £199.75 including VAT"!!!
I rang several local Computer repair centres, who unanimously told me that regardless of what was wrong, monitors were not repairable!!! They all offered to sell me a new 17 inch monitor at ...

Advantages: Good Picture Quality Disadvantages: Price
...I have been using this Gateway EV700(CRT) monitor for some time now and i still have to find a disadvantage of this lovel product. It has an excellent 17" display (view able 15.9"). This product is really easy to use. Most of the times if you have to change the display settings of a monitor, you quite have to mess with your mind but not with this one. It has a menu that has every option in it and is very easy to understand and operate. This menu ... ...of the monitor. It's not too heavy so you can move it any time and any where plus due to its special design it doesn't occupy too much space on your computer desk. You can move it vertically or horizontally. The casing is hard as a rock, and despite of getting hammered by me plenty of times, it is still in good shape. It is probably the best model by Gateway. The Dot pitch is .28mm, which is very good. The image quality and color fidelity of this ...

Advantages: retro feel, can get one almost for free Disadvantages: looks and works like an old TV
i still own it. another old friend of mine. i like him (as i much as i would like my old friend) ...but to be honest with you ... if you thinking to get one PAY NOTHING - it's too old to worth anything unless you are despirate for retro feel in your office. GOOD POINTS: 1) despite age it has a good sharp picture / bright colours / easy to install and adjust - generically it's a good monitor, works lovely with my old LexmarkZ55 (print awaht you see ... ...it almost for nothing (car boot sale, local adds, office refurbishment)
3) excellent value if it's in working order and you found it in a skip or been given for nothing BAD POINTS:
1) technically it's out of date: 2) physically it's a like an old TV - big, curved and flick a lot
3) mentally very difficult to get rid off. Are you are looking for one?
OVERVIEW: please try to invest in something more contemporary but if you have no cash to spare ...

Advantages: Picture, controls Disadvantages: Takes up a lot of desk
The Gateway EV700 17" came with my PC. It has a 15.9 inch viewable area.
The picture is good and sharp.
Adjustment is easy and there are a range of features. Open the door at the bottom of the monitor, and press the wheel to review the options. Turn the wheel to select an option and press the wheel to enter that option. Turn the wheel to adjust and press the wheel again to exit that option. It is easy to use. The power button is on the front, which ...
