REVIEW BY: larry Reviewed  Feb 06, 2008
I bought around Christmas, nice monitor. Be sure you understand (I didn't) that your video card or onboard video must support 1440x900 for you to get recommended picture. Drivers from my Shuttle SS40G 1.36 GHZ with onboard SIS video only show 1024x 768 (some width distortion), as does my old Vaio PCG-FXA63 1.4 GHZ with 8 MB ATI Rage Mobility AGP video (both running XP). My old Apple Blue&White at 350 Mhz runs it correctly, slowly and beautifully at 1440x 900 as designed, because previous owner put a ATI Radeon 7000 card w/32 MB in it later. Great for photos which is what I use it for, haven't tried for DVD's or TV yet - wish I could find an easy S-video or RCA to VGA D-sub converter (saw one for $80 on Tiger). I got on sale for $129 if I ever get the $50 rebate. Well worth it I think.

Out of five monitors purchased, only one had a minor problem, and it was one tiny burnt out pixel.

REVIEW BY: Kris Reviewed  Jan 11, 2008
Received monitor promptly within 2 days from ordering but the box was clearly opened and taped shut. The box was missing the VGA cable and one of the pieces on the back of the monitor fell off. Poor product, would not recommend to anyone. Classic, you get what you pay for.

Bought 2 for my Son's computer upgrade. At $139 after rebate you won't find a better deal and my Son's are VERY pleased to move up from CRT.

REVIEW BY: Caz Carlso Reviewed  Jan 06, 2008

3M Privacy Filters Help You Comply with Federal Confidentiality Laws
3M Privacy Computer Filters help companies comply with federal legislation requiring confidential personal information be kept confidential. 3M Privacy Computer filters can help medical facilities (i.e. hospitals,clinics, health insurance companies, etc.) comply with the Health Insurance Portability & Accessibility Act (HIPAA). The privacy filters are a simple accessory to desktop monitors, both LCD and CRT, as well as laptop computers. They darken the viewable area of the monitor screen when viewed from the side, which helps prevent the release of confidential personal information that must be protected. Similar legislation exists for those in the financial industry. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act places the same restrictions on banks, finance companies, mortgage companies and credit card companies, to name a few.

Flat is Beautiful! (But Confusing)
Explaining the Differences Among the Flat Screen TVs

It looks like Christopher Columbus was wrong. The world -, at least the one shown on television screens and computer monitors - is flat! However, with everything from Plasma, LCD and DLP lumped into the flat screen category, it’s hard for most consumers to get a handle on just what constitutes a flat screen TV. Our editors have provided this brief guide to help you sort it all out.
