Philips 15" 150B2B LCD Monitor

Summary: Great picture
Review: I bought the Philips 150b2e. I think the e is for the ergonomic base. The picture is fantastic. Isn't that what you want from a monitor? It's bright and clear and takes up little space. My old 17 inch crt monotor didn't really fit on the desk. But this one looks great.

I'm not sure how it handles video -- some crt monitors aren't fast enough to do video well -- because I haven't tried much of that yet. But it's written specs are fast enough for video and the picture for normal use is clear, sharp, bright.

Summary: Good basic LCD
Review: I bought this as a demo, so felt pretty good about the price to start. However, I was more than pleased with myself as I realized that the monitor features a portrait mode capabilty and free software to make it work. Web browsing in Portrait, and doing word processing, it nicer than other monitors. I get the sense that this is a very decent monitor, but not the tops because it lacks a DVI connector and the brightness is a little on the low side.
