Advantages: excellent quality, USB and Firewire ports, better than competition
Disadvantages: cabling, more exepensive than competition

I'm an Apple user through-and-through. Though I'm writing this on a PC! I bought this screen to go with my G5 Powermac and installation couldn't be easier. When you first set eyes on it you can't help but admire its elegance and design. Its clarity is superb and you can view it from almost any angle without a substantial loss of quality. The depth and contrast is perfect for photo editing and gaming. Its fast response also helps with fast moving ...
...laptop and, having used the Apple screen, i struggle to use it for video editing. It's just too cramped. The Apple screen gives you loads of space and feels quite 'airy' - if you see what i mean. Another nice feature is the USB (x2) and Firewire (x2) ports on the back. These make up for the lack of slots on the computer. One tiny issue though is the amount of cabling. When set up you'll have a power lead, USB and Firewire cables and the DVI cable ... Read review

Advantages: Resolution, Auto-Setup, Response Time, Price
Disadvantages: Doesn't generate as much heat so study is colder!

...obviously I did - an NEC MultiSync 2070VX to be precise. Bearing in mind the screen I'd been using for the last 5 years had been 21" at a resolution of 1600x1200 the bar was pretty much set - anything less would be a significant backward step. With a single-minded purpose, I set about scouring the interweb for an LCD screen that would provide 1600x1200 resolution at a decent screen size. There is a reasonable range of choices here, with prices starting ...
...possible I came across the NEC 2070vx for only £320. It offered everything I was looking for - the right resolution, a good refresh rate (5ms!) with both DVI and VGA inputs. We have NEC LCD screens at work so I was confident that it would be a high quality product. It came well packaged with European and UK power cords as well as VGA and DVI cables, a manual and a driver CD. Setup was trivial - the hardest part was taking my old monitor off the ... Read review

Advantages: Good Max Resolution
Disadvantages: Not many customer change features

This monitor is great for the average home computer. It is a decent size to watch movies, play games etc. on it.

The colour quality is good, The only thing this product lacks is the control to change to screens position & other key features. It does however have a auto-adjust button that does basically everything for ... Read review

Advantages: crisp display, fast response, almost everything i can think of!
Disadvantages: 4:3 aspect

Just got this recently to replace my old Belinea 101530, and it was an excellent replacement. I was a bit sceptical about getting this when I was looking about, I saw the specs and say that it had response time of 2ms, great but the contrast ratio and brightness were not the best I'd seen on the net. Got the monitor and was not disappointed in the slightest! There really isn't much to say about this but I'll try... The monitor has a 19 inch screen ...
...this monitor is 1280x1024 which doesn't seem much better than older monitors but is adequate for the size of the screen. The brightness of the monitor is excellent, watching videos on the computer is now far more enjoyable now that I can actually see all the detail!As normal the brightness and contrast are set half way, I found that I had no need to change this, I did experiment with different settings but the default is fine. The only disadvantage ... Read review

...display does not pivot. The viewing angle loses contrast pretty quickly when moving left to right in front of the screen, but I found text to be very legible, even at small point sizes. Straight out of the box, and without adjustment, the LCD1770NX display had a distinct blue cast, most noticeable in gray areas of an image. However, I was able to achieve a good neutral gray and accurate color using the manual calibration controls on the front of ... Read review
