Mitsubishi Diamond Pro (2070 SB)

Advantages: Excellent display, Highly reliable
Disadvantages: It goes back a fair way and it's no Flat-bed!

...Suitable for both home and professional users alike, the Diamond Pro 2070 has a whopping 22" frontage with 20" of viewable screen. The maximum resolution is 2048 x 1536 which, in todays market, is decent enough by anybodys standards. At over 60lbs (just under 30kgs) it is quite heavy, but as most suppliers will deliver the beauty this shouldn't cause any problems. There are ample controls on the front set of the monitor, they include brightness, contrast, horizontal and vertical sizing and position, colour temperature and other standard features. The dynamics of the monitor, and the immense resolution are evidence of how far monitors have developed in recent years, the high calibre glare reduction enforces it's worth in the market even further. The resolution pre-sets are as follows: - 2048 x 1536 / 86 Hz 1920 x 1440 / 92 Hz...

Review of Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2070SB

Tried and tested: Street cred in a box

Advantages: Brightness, good response, good features, attractive case
Disadvantages: The dot pitch could be better and it is quite expensive

...Technology today in my opinion is absolute sensational. It’s exciting to think what they will bring out on the market next. But something keeps on telling me that they are holding back on a great deal to make as much money as possible. Over the years we have seen the world of computers establish itself more and more with ideas for the future to blow us away. But I am impatient and think to myself why cat they invent things like they do in futuristic films. I know its silly but don't you think that would be remarkable. The market for computers has gone from strength to strength releasing some mind whopping technology as well some fancy monitors. * Mitsubishi Diamond pro 930 SB * So what is all the fuss about this particular monitor you may be asking? With its superior screen display and dynamic cabinet design, this monitor...

SEEING IS BELIEVING

Advantages: super flat CRT diamondron tube, super sharp image, 3 year warranty, free loan monitor
Disadvantages: none really...Since merger with NEC the customer Services number can be busy and may be on hold for a while

...computers can get outdated before you’ve even had chance to get it out of the box; a monitor offers long term investment and allows many happy hours of viewing! Before I explain the Mitsubishi Diamond Pro monitor, I would just like to emphasize some basic terms you may come across in the specifications of monitors (if you are already familiar with these please scroll down to the Mitsubishi monitor). The BASICS – Terminology ------------------------ While there are many terms used in Monitor descriptions I will only highlight the basic ones that may be of importance to you whilst deciding which monitor to buy. · CRT = Cathode Ray Tube (most monitor specifications list the CRT size e.g. 17”. Please note a 17” CRT size listed for a 17” monitor does not mean that the viewable screen area is 17...

Review of Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 720 NF

Only the best will do!

Advantages: Excellent colour/contrast,flat screen,stylish
Disadvantages: Might be too expensive to some people

...it is stylish. From the front it looks like a flat screen Monitor but that is deceiving because when you peer around the side you can see it goes back around 25 inches. That?s quite far back so remember that if you want to buy one just to check that you have the space available for it. It isn?t that chunky though as the front section is wider than the back as with all monitors. So first things first I should tell you a little about the monitor itself. *The Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 930SB* This monitor is obviously made by Mitsubishi and it really performs to a high standard. It has a 19 inch screen and it is a CRT/ display device. Its exact measurements are 44.2cm x 44.8cm x 44.3cm. Its diagonal size is 19? but its viewable size is 18?. It has a dot pitch of 0.24mm and its maximum resolution is 1920 x 1440 / 73 Hz. It does have...

What a Diamond geezer!

Advantages: Willing to match quotes and very approachable
Disadvantages: None

...In true Emma style I had left my car insurance renewal to the very very last minute. In fact, I think it expires at midnight tonight! Nothing like living on the edge eh. I had received my renewals notice from Diamond, my current insurer, weeks ago but it's been sitting in a drawer at home. Needless to say it's still sitting in a drawer at home which was quite unhelpful when I went to call them and give them my policy number and details. So, after a phone call home to my boyfriend, who's currently playing at house-husbandry whilst he has a couple of days off, I had all the details to hand and I gave them a call ? "Welcome to Diamond, my name's Andrew, how can I help you today?" Excellent, a guy answered my call and my blag was about to begin. "Oh hi Andrew" said in my most sweetest, sickly, girly-girl telephone voice. "I...

Review of Diamond

Are Diamonds for ever?

Advantages: Cheap, you can choose not to pay for some services, they will actully insure my car.
Disadvantages: You can't use them if you're a bloke.

...Hmmm... I dunno. There's clearly a pattern in these reviews which goes, "great until you make a claim" but then find me an insurance comapany to which that doesn't apply? I found Diamond via the confused.com website. I have quite a low opinion of the insurance industry which is probably not merited but for the most part I believe you are paying to comply with the law and not much else. At this point I should say that Diamond only provide insurance for women drivers (sorry boys). The rationale for this is that statistically women drivers have less accidents than men and so if they aim at just women there'll be less claims and they can keep their premiums low. WHY DID I CHOOSE DIAMOND? Firstly, because they were cheap. Secondly, well because even the best insurers don't offer a great service. I used to be insured...

Review of Diamond

got a flat

Advantages: built in USB, flat, good tones
Disadvantages: Diamond Plus 91 is better and cheaper

...The monitor is a 'flat' screen and to most people it would be, but on closer inspection the tube itself is not flat but contains a gentle curve, the front glass plate which is nearly flat masks the fact that the tube is not flat...clever visual trickery. However it is still flatter than most monitors out there, and the 900u displays some excellent strong colours compared to Sony Trinitrons at a better price, and in my humble opinion a better designed housing. The monitor comes with a USB hub so you can plug your USB camera and other devices into it rather than your PC. Sharpness is average and even a bit fuzzy in the corners, it's new sibling the Diamond Plus 91 which is cheaper (made in Malaysia, 900u is made in Japan) as it loses the USB hub is much sharper. Maximum resolution is 1600 x 1200 at 75hz and it has all the usual...

Review of Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 900u

Diamond's Really Do Cost Blood - Blood Diamond

Advantages: Gripping, Superb acting, makes you think about life differently, eye opening
Disadvantages: It is a very disturbing film and might be too disturbing for some

...Personal Opinion I watched Blood Diamond last night and it was an absolutely amazing film that was completely absorbing and gripping. It is a 2006 action/adventure drama film co-produced and directed by Edward Zwick, director of Glory and The Last Samurai. It stars Leonado DiCaprio, Jennifer Connelly and Djimon Hounsou. The film was put forward for five Academy Awards of which included Best Actor (DiCaprio) and Best Supporting Actor (Hounsou) I admire Leonardo DiCaprio for his acting abilities he is a first class actor who is able to get deep into the character. As a character actress myself I know it is not easy to dig deep into a character that is so emotionally challenging as DiCaprio played. It would have made him feel a wide range of emotions and he probably had to dig deep to places that brought back that same emotion that...
