Rating: Summary: Excellent colors, contrast and design. Review: Elegant Bright and vivid. 19 inch diagonal. size with half inch frame gives a very large display with a minimum of desk space. When rotated (with included software) you are able to get a whole web page on the screen.You can adjust height of the screen upward or downward on the stand.Has a dual hookups so you can use the monitor from analog and digital video connections simultaniously. Wonderful. Well worth the price.
Rating: Summary: Buy Samsung at your own RISK Review: I bought a Samsung flat-panel LCD television in March, and it the panel went dead in April. I brought it to a one of Samsung's certified dealers for repair, and waited and waited. Finally in May, I was told that the the television panel was indeed defective and couldn't be fixed, so the manufacturer was obligated to replace it under the warranty. It's now September, and guess what, I'm still waiting for the replacement. Buy from Samsung at your own risk. From my own experience, Samsung does stand by their products. For a few dollars more, buy one of the better, more reliable brands.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Monitor Review: I purchased mine about three months ago, no problems or dead pixels. Very clear and sharp compared to others. I considered a Sony but it was only analog without DVI. I have hooked up two computers using only one at a time. One is DVI and the other is analog. Great pictures either way.
With Win XP the option of using clear type makes text even sharper. I notice some ghosting at times but I feel that is due to my video card, a Gforce 5200 FX 128mb. I'd suggest having a better card depending on if you play fast action games. It's rare but it does happen. All in all I feel it was a very good choice. Oh, this is a larger viewing area than my 19" CRT.
Rating: Summary: New Samsung Fan! Review: I walked into the computer store with no idea what brand I would purchase for my new LCD computer monitor. I choose this model with some very close competition. The sales guy told me that Samsung was a good brand and they are one of the few company's that actualy make the LCD pixels. I forked out the money (after all this was a big purchase for me) and I took home the box. After I opened and installed it I was in love. My roommate even said that he could not beleive how beautiful my new monitor was. The DVI input was perfect for the new high end video card that I purchased. I had no problems and this is probably one of the best and most rewarding purchases that I have made. I have bought many other Samsung "things" and have come to agree that it is a truly under rated brand. (I only hope their reputation will not increase their product costs). In a world where you get what you pay for, I finally got more than what I paid for!! If you do purchase another type of LCD, make sure you looks at the tech specs closly, as I discovered along my path, the high cost LCD's do not all have the high end specs.

Rating: Summary: Still going strong Review: I've been using this monitor for about 10 months now (my computer is my home within home, so I use it a lot). I'm completely spoiled with this monitor's greatness - awesome 1280x1024 resolution with vibrant colors, more screen - less frame, and great reliability. Even though others may complain that the dead-pixels warranty is poor, I've yet to see any dead-pixels at all on mine. The landscape/portrait option is great to have for maybe photo editing (for portrait photos), internet browsing, and word/spreadsheets processing. My ATI software for my video card supports this feature. Also, the DVI/VGA switch (A and B) allows maybe two computers to share this monitor (if one uses DVI and the other uses VGA). If memory serves me right, my research for a 19-inch monitor before buying this led me to find out that this monitor uses almost half the power of the average competitor, including Dell. If it is any factor to anyone, it may save you money as a long-term investment in terms of product lifetime and power saving. Just a little info for people searching for their next monitor: *A 19-inch LCD is not the same as a 19-inch CRT in terms of viewable screen (19-inch CRT will typically be 18-inch viewable). *Samsung is gradually becoming one of the better electronics company...they got my vote as being the best.

Rating: Summary: Monitor beautiful; 3rd-party "rebate", beware! Review: I've had the monitor only one day, digitally connected to a Matrox P650 video card. Display is stunning. But Amazon's policies are not so stunning. Between the time I ordered the monitor, on the basis of a "$100 rebate" from third-party J&R, displayed by Amazon on the product page; and time I checked for order status; the rebate promise had disappeared from Amazon's product page, and Amazon disavowed all responsibility, referring me to J&R. When the monitor arrived, there was no rebate info of any kind in the package. When I called J&R, after I insisted, they said they would send me a $50 rebate coupon; remains to be seen if I actually receive it, or if/when they actually honor it! And when I checked the product page on Amazon this morning, no mention of J&R! This monitor is now through Office Depot!? Talk about stealing away in the night...
