Advantages: circular base, smooth, rounded edges with easy height and tilt and swivel adjustability Disadvantages: The viewing angle loses contrast pretty quickly
The 17” NEC MultiSync LCD1770NX, a flat-panel monitor featuring a thin-frame design, enhances your visual experience with superior screen performance, advanced technologies and comforting design elements. This model's Ambix dual-input technology ensures compatibility with today's and tomorrow's computer systems, while an integrated USB 2.0 hub connects you to all of your peripherals.
The LCD1770NX model has a circular base, smooth, rounded edges with easy height and tilt and swivel adjustability. This 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 ...
Advantages: Display quality, viewing angles, price Disadvantages: Not quite as bright as some
For its price, an excellent quality monitor. If you are a graphics designer looking for colour calibrated monitors then go elsewhere, but as an IT Administrator I have two of these on my desk that I use for 9 hours a day.
No eye strain, colour balance is good, image quality is superb. In our office we have over 30 of these and not one has developed a fault, dead pixel or any other problems. The image is consistent from one monitor to another as well (suprisingly uncommon on LCD monitors!)
It could be a little brighter - I have a Dell monitor next to my NECs and its *slightly* brighter - but you only notice this because they're next to each other.
All in, you won't regret spending the money. Decent resolution, decent size at a decent price. ...

The second thing I learnt is that there are four main types of LCD panel:
- TN + Film
- IPS (superceded by Super IPS, or S-IPS)
- MVA
- PVA
I shan't go into the details - suffice to say that if you wish to read more about them, then a quick Google for "Types of LCD panel" will return most of the information you could require. To cut a long story short though, S-IPS is the preferred type of display for photo editing because of it's wide viewing angle.
Before I finally get onto the device itself, it's worth mentioning the last piece of advice that I found, which settled me upon this monitor. Apparently, the best monitors are Eizo. If you can't afford that, go for NEC, Lacie or Apple. (http://www.anands.net/faq/lcd.html)
I wanted to spend enough, but not a small fortune, so the fact that the NEC was an S ...
This is a lamp for NEC MultiSync MT1020/MT820 LCD Projector. Be sure to replace the lamp when the Status light comes on. If you continue to use the lamp after 2000 hours of use, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury. If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for lamp replacement. Allow a minimum of ONE minute to elapse between turning the lamp off and on. High voltage is applied to the lamp immediately when the power is turned on. Therefore turning the power off and quickly back on may shorten the life of your lamp and result in damage to your LCD projector.
