HP Pavilion MX70

...is they have to be HP Polk Audio speakers. Also the monitor comes with an inbuilt microphone. I gotta admit I thought I would use this feature a lot more than I actually did! It barely noticeable which is great. However, when you do spot it it's got a cool aluminium look cage over it, somehow looks professional. I'm sure this addition would be great for those of you who frequently converse over the net in meetings etc. What’s more the cabling is ...
...the monitor connector right at the end. This means you don’t have two wires from the monitor connecting to the PC. Keeps it tidy *****MENU***** The menu is nothing out of the ordinary. It's very simple to use with a menu, exit, +, -, Contrast and brightness buttons. The menu lets you change... 1) Brightness 2) Contrast 3) Zoom 4) Size and Position 5) Advanced Geometry (e.g. trapeziums, trapezoid, side pins and pincushion) 6) Advanced Menu ...

Review of HP Pavilion MX70

...The monitor designed by HP is 17", but it is 17" of gold, other monitors i have had after a few months pixels here and there would break, and leave black dots on the screen where once you notice you cant stop looking at it, but not the pavilion mx70.

Review of HP Pavilion MX70

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. ...

Review of HP Pavilion MX70

I have had my mx70 for 7 years. The only reason I just bought a new computer was for more memory. My MX70 is still going strong and I've used it constantly. It is now going to a new home where it will give someone else years of excellent service. ...

Review of HP Pavilion MX70

Wow...I love the idea of something other than the beige computer tower and monitor. This monitor is a very modern looking blue and silver. The screen is 17". It has a microphone in the top of the monitor which could prove useful (I have not tested it yet). The monitor is also equipt to have Polk audio speakers attached. It displays colours and images quite vividly, with a max. resolution of 1280 by 1024.You can alter the settings via the one touch ...
...etc. One criticism is the power lead, why oh why do manufactures provide only inches of lead I will never know. I have viewed dvds on this monitor and picture resoloution on full screen is excellent. As usual you can alter settings via the windows interface for your own preference. It is a very good multipurpose monitor. Whats more the monitor doesn't have to be installed, just plug in and it's ready for use. The monitor sits on a 60 degree left/right ...
