Description:

Sceptre Technology's X7G Komodo IV is a 17-inch TFT multimedia LCD whose affordability, space-saving design, and wall-mount capabilities lend it to both style- and budget-conscious offices. You'll enjoy bright, deep colors and clear text produced by its high brightness (250 nits maximum) and high contrast ratio (400:1), while its 25 ms response time (15 ms rising, 10 ms falling) and 0.264 mm dot pitch deliver smooth still and moving images.

The monitor's full, 17-inch viewable screen displays a native resolution of 1,280 x 1,024 for outstanding image detail. LCD monitors employ two sheets of polarizing material with a liquid crystal solution between them. An electric current passed through the liquid causes the crystals to align so that light cannot pass through. Each crystal, therefore, is like a shutter, either allowing light to pass or blocking that light. This is a thin-film-transistor LCD, a type of flat-panel display in which each pixel is controlled by one to four transistors, ensuring the best resolution of all flat-panel techniques.

The X7G draws up to 33 percent less power than a traditional CRT monitor of the same size. Planning to take it overseas? No problem—the monitor offers a built-in power adapter that lets it accept inputs from AC 100 to 240V, 50/60 Hz. The screen is also flicker-free and emits almost no radiation. A Kensington security port can be used to install an optional anti-theft cable. The monitor is PC and Mac compatible, although Mac users must be connected either to a Power Macintosh using an IBM VGA card or to a Mac that uses a separate "sync on video" sync signal output. This model is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
