Review of Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.5 GHz - 17" TFT

17 INCHES OF TFT GENIUS

Advantages: THE DESKSPACE YOU GAIN
Disadvantages: THE COST

...PICTURE QUALITY Absolutely awesome, crystal clear. Some of the older TFT?s I?ve seen used to be a bit fuzzy but this is great, I always get a really really clear image. IMAGE SIZE IN RELATION TO TUBE SIZE I?m taking this section to be in relation to the same size monitor in a CRT range. The image is just the same size, perfect replication. However you do benefit from having a flat screen which gets rid of the distortion seen on a standard monitor making for a much clearer and crisper picture. COLOUR SENSITIVITY Running on Windows XP the colours are really bright but without getting a blur. Like the ?Start? button with it?s bright colours but the windows logo on the button is just so clear, as is everything. When playing back a DVD or film clip you can really see all the colours. Previously on some CRT?s I?ve seen them...

Samsung 17" R710- packed with goodies?

Advantages: Good processor,massive memory, wide display
Disadvantages: poor speakers, no Blu ray

...A good looking laptop filled with high fi gadgets: I was attracted to the Samsung R series laptops because of their high specifications and their relatively affordable price compared to other brands with the similar specifications. Now at first sight it looks pretty sleek and I always prefer a glossy Black finish. Now this is a 17inch laptop and is pretty big compared to others. This can be an important decision to make and if you prefer a more portable laptop a 15.4 inch would be fine too- I came across R560 and R510 among Samsung. Now the screen is a wide WXGA- LCD and is perfect for entertainment -movies and games. The camera is pretty good and the memory slot is pretty handy too. MEMORY and GRAPHICS - Its strengths are surely the huge memory-RAM and the fast processor- to be noted its a 3MB cache core2 duo processor. Looking...

Review of Samsung R710 Core 2 Duo P8600 2.4 GHz - 17" TFT

Old design hides great new features

Advantages: Huge, High res display. Very quick, great processor, ram, high capacity HDD
Disadvantages: No unibody design, some features only available on SMALLER model, Still no Blu-Ray

...Let me be frank. I am a fan of Apple computer. This is no secret. I love more or less everything they do, and although I hope to be objective, here, you are reading the review of a card carrying member of the Cult of Mac. I had heard that apple had been prepping a redesign to the MacBook pro line for some time, and had held off on purchasing my new macbook pro until this happened. Sadly, the updates came, and the 17 inch top end model was not part of the refresh. The cool new unibody macbook pro's are limited to the 15 inch model. I agonised over the choice for some time, the new 15 inch MBP's are so impressive, but eventually, screen real estate won out, and I brought the older design 17 inch model. I have to say, I am not disappointed. The computer is a replacement for my old 17 inch PowerBook G4, which was itself no slouch...

V7 L17FM flat screen/TFT monitor

Advantages: Good value for money, easy to operate
Disadvantages: Tends to "wobble" a little

...I've recently brought this TFT monitor as my two-year-old CRT monitor gave up on me. I'm not into gaming at all so I was after a simple TFT monitor with a large screen without paying anything more than £150. I shopped around for no more than half an hour before I found Misco on the Internet and was instantly keen on this model and its price. The item was shipped out the next working day and the following day I received the monitor and was not disappointed. The monitor was packaged well and was very easy to install (using the power and analogue signal cables to link the PC to the monitor) and it was up and running. I flicked through the user manual afterwards and it only confirms what I did. It also has a few trouble shooting tips. Onto the monitor itself then, the first thing I noticed was how much brighter and clearer...

Review of V7 L17AB

Good quality TFT monitor at reasonable cost

Advantages: Lightweight, good viewing angle adjustment
Disadvantages: Speakers not best quality, but workable

...I decided to replace my 19" CRT monitor for home use. Using a 17" TFT at work, I found the resolution ont hat more than adequate. Research on prices on the web showed that this Digimate monitor was the most reasonable, with the right features. I was particularly attracted by the angle adjustment, and the built-in speakers. Ordering was extremly simple - I used a company called aria - and the cost was £123 inc VAT. I had the screen delivered to my work address, which was no problem for their on-line ordering system. The product arrived promptly and well packaged. Configuration onto my system was easy - very much a simple plug and play, as you would expect these days. The process was simple for all levels of user - from basic to expert. Setting the monitor up ont he desk - again very easy, with the angle adjustment...

Review of 17" Digimate L-1718 TFT Monitor

Dell Studio 17 Laptop.

Advantages: Great machine for small price.
Disadvantages: None

...This is the most affordable Laptop computer ever.. Dell Studio 17 the price is right about $380.00 Where in these days you can get a Note Book Computer with this kind of money? The Studio 17 is as attractive or desirable as an XPS laptop, but it is more appealing than an Inspiron. With that in mind, it achieves its objective: to be cheaper than an XPS without sacrificing too much in the way of looks. Yes indeed there are better replacement machines available, but the Studio 17 hold its own with most. With than in mind we are talking about /or $370.00- $380.00 price range. This machine is powerful, effective, good looking, light weight and easy to handle. The scree is wide and rezolution is fantastic. These days it's just doesn't pay to spend too much money on computers because tomorrow they will become absolite. So you spend...

Review of Dell Studio 17

Amongst the best 17" TFT's

Advantages: Sharp, vibrant, sleek and attractive
Disadvantages: DVI cable not included, pricey

...I have just moved to a TFT after I decided by 2 year old 17" Iiyama CRT was not sharp enough for 2005. Now, having entered the TFT world with this monitor, I never want to go back. The Iiyama Prolite E431S is one of the best TFT's I've ever seen or used, period. First, lets get the obvious questions out of the way: Dead Pixels? No. Hot Pixels? No. Sharp? Yes. Colourful? Yes. Bright? Yes. Slim? Yes. Expensive? No. Cheap? Definetely not. Secondly, all the above also apply to the other monitor that I ordered - which is exactly the same make and type (which is going to my brother). Iiyama's product design and QA teams have certainly done wonders. Typically, I use my PC for 3D gaming and productivity (both text and graphics-based), which pretty much covers most bases that a TFT is expected to perform on. Some TFT's ghost...

Review of Iiyama Pro Lite E431S-B

Excellent TFT for an Excellent price

Advantages: Cheap, but still an excellent quality monitor, 12 ms response time
Disadvantages: Built in speakers, monitor wobbles with the stand

.... Another unlike able point is that of the odd designed it tends to let the monitor wobble a bit, for example if you have your printer on the same desk or if you give it a tap. But it's really not an issue as you don't go around tapping your monitor or printing documents constantly. I would highly recommend this monitor to any one it's as good as any well known manufacture, but much cheaper if your looking for a 17 inch monitor for all round media use this is the TFT for you....

17 Again: a star is born.

Advantages: funny, light hearted, hot
Disadvantages: bit teenagey, hollywood, screaming girls

...I believe in Zac Efron. I believe that behind the singing, the dancing, the basketball, the Disney brainwashing, the Hollywood smile, the flowing soft hair, the chiselled good looks, the piercing blue eyes you can swim in, the toned, muscular bo... Hmm... Seems I got a tad carried away there. Where was I? Ah yes, I believe that behind all that superficial (yet godlike) nonsense, there is a bloody good actor behind Mr. Efron?s perfect visage. I believe that one day we will all see the artist formerly known as Troy Bolton lifting one of those prestigious gold men in triumph of being able to break free from tween sensation to the star of our time. To say that in 17 Again, Zac is soaring, flying, there not being a star in heaven that he can?t reach would not only be the worst joke of all time, but also completely accurate. In High...
