Advantages: High Quality Screen, Low refresh rate, Built in USB Hub great looks, Excellent Viewing angles
Disadvantages: 1 Year warranty, sometimes with Macintosh connector not PC

The Formac 2010 is a fantastic TFT. I have set a number of these up for clients and the refresh times, viewing angles and the sheer size of the screen make them ideal for watching DVDs, playing games(see below about games) and generally using the computer. Gone are the days of ghosting that used to be associated with TFTs. Great as these are, I would like to make sure anyone intending to buy one of these is aware of a few points which may cause ...
...The native resolution of the Formac Gallery 2010 is 1600x1200, this means that anything below this resolution(while it will work) will look blocky and not sharp, this does happen with all TFTs which are not run at their native resolution, but if you're used to a 19" or smaller TFT you might not have had to run at such a High res before. The problem that this creates is that when playing a 3d game, the more modern it is, most likely, the more power ... Read review

...I previously owned a 17\" Formac but it had been with me since 1997 and was getting a little tired to say the least! Well, eventually I plucked up the courage to spend my hard earned cash on the Formac Gallery 2010 Xtreme-5. All, I can say is wowweee! it is absolutely fantastic the styling is sleek and it does what it says - gives you excellent colour and image display. I really like the fact that it has two usb points on the back of the monitor ... Read review

...ever you are buying your Formac from takes on the responsibility of the warranty. The TFTs are very reliable and I have had 1 return and that was sorted out very quickly. The reason to make sure of this is because the manufacturer is currently in Germany with no UK office, so chances are where ever you buy from has imported them themselves. If they are only going to give you a 30 day warranty then send you off to the manufacturer, you'll have quite ... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic Picture And Price
Disadvantages: Took 3 People To Put The TV On The Bloody Stand!

...over. About It The Samsung T240 HD is a flat screen TV which has Freeview built in, as long as you are able to access it in your area. This TV is fantastic if you are wanting to update your older one, and because of the Digital switch over that will be happening around the country, it will then save you buying a new freeview box as well. It is also HD ready which means you will be able to plug in a Blu-Ray player, PS3, Xbox 360 or any other ...
...originally going to buy a Samsung TV. We were going to stay with Sony as that is really what we would usually buy. We were always pretty loyal customers. We went to the local Dixons which has 100's of TVs on show. What was proven was that Sony was not a big player anymore. The Samsung appealed most because of the quality. It was next to a LG which wasn't as good as the Samsung. But the size of it is we, at 24" is really big. Dixons showed it off ... Read review

Advantages: easy to use/set up. Widescreen. Built in speakers.
Disadvantages: Not enough base on sound

I have spent my christmas money on this monitor. Looking at its clarity in the store made me decide to go for it. Getting home and taking it out of the box, I was pleased with the way it was protected against knocks and bumps. Plenty of cover over the screen to stop scratches. When I got its base fastened to the screen it was then I realised how heavy it was. It sits nice and firm on the desk. The tilting mechanism works great although a bit tight ...
...I would of licked it to adjust upwards aswell, but for the price its good. A 19 inch wide screen is definatly good for watching movies with. Connecting it up to the computer is with the VGA socket (the blue multi pinned one) and no other one is there so one thing to think about when you buy it. The cable is supplied with the unit though. The nice thing about the power cable is it does not have a mains dropper on it. You plug straight into the mains ... Read review
