Summary: Beautiful color and Quality
Comment: I just purchased this monitor from Best Buy and it looks fantastic! This HP monitor has a resolution of 1920-1200. It looks really big once it is placed in the computer table and it has a HDMI connection. It also comes with two USB port connection. I know the HP monitor is a little expensive, but you will love it. Anyone interested in buying a computer monitor, should definitely buy this.

Summary: Beautiful display with bright vivid colors.
Comment: I bought my new HP desktop with Blu ray player and needed a large size monitor to display the high definition DVDs. This screen really is a good high definition display, and also a great monitor, you can have several display pages showing at once. When I first set it up I found it was too bright but quickly learned I could adjust the brightness, contrast, colors and other display factors either with the computer or with the monitor itself. Has a good viewing angle for an LCD, it looks clear and bright even when you are viewing fom an angle.
It has a fairly small desk footprint and is adjustable up/down, left/right, and angle. It is hard to imagine na better monitor.

Summary: HP Monitor
Comment: I like the monitor it works well. The one thing I do not like about it is the color of icons are real bright. I love the widescreen which size was the same as my old 19 inch standard monitor and the depth which is a lot less. I am running this on a Dual Screen system on XP professional. I use for my Playstation 3 and my computer system. Adjustment controls are very easy to use and allow a VGA input as well as a HDMI input in which you can switch between the two if you like.

Summary: Outstanding Colors, Great Modern Sleek Looks
Comment: I have had this monitor since Christmas and to me it just so vibrant in the colors and clarity.
I matched my 24" inch monitor with an HP Elite 9000's desktop and they were married flawlessly. Each complemented the other as would be expected being they are often sold together. The monitor can be moved up and down to position as you like and can be turned sideways to provide protrait view if desired. It has full resolution providing more real estate and pixels to give you awesome detail and colors.
I have no blur, no burns no issues with viewing angles. My computer is positioned near a window that gets bright afternoon sun. Definitely some glare as the monitor itself is a very glossy shiney black border around the screen that also attracts fingerprints as well, but easy to clean too. Simply putting the window shade down made it much better but even with it up as long as you are in front of it you'll see the screen very well.
It has a 1000:1 contrast ratio which is superb for a monitor, however, I now see 3000:1 monitors in some stores but at double the price in many cases and they are geared to being a primary or secondary HDTV for many.
This for me is only for my desktop and for me to do graphics work and just do tons of photo edits, viewing and the ability to do side by side work on photos and documentation.
This monitor can be seen at most retailers, so go to the store and watch it along with the other 2 dozen 24" monitiors to compare to what you like best. I think everyone has a little bit different colors likes and dislikes. Remember this monitor has allot of calibration that can be done to change the colors, resolution to your specific liking.

Summary: Great for the money, but
Comment: Great value for the money, but I would look at competing products if you want this for a business/production environment.
1- Off-axis viewing is not very good. Even if you are right in the center, both color cast and brightness throughout the screen are uneven.
2- The mounting and pivot mechanics are marginal at best. You will have to tilt and finagle the monitor as you pivot if you don't want to bump the table/stand with the corner of the monitor. And, it is not exactly a fluid, quality movement. You won't want to do it throughout the day unless you buy a separate, wall-mount pivot.
3- Make sure you buy a third-party cable unless you have an HDMI output on your video card (few computers do). Amazon sells a few. I hear the image is much better with a DVI-HDMI cable (or straight HDMI) ... but, I'm using VGA since my cable was back-ordered. :-)
4- The piano black bezel may look good in the showroom, but it quickly gets fingerprinted-up. Felix Unger would probably wipe off the black by the third day of ownership.
5- The speakers are so bad, I think they should have used the production $ to add a DVI connector and a matte finish.
ALL THIS SAID, for a home user or cash-tight small business, it's a lot of screen for a very reasonable price - and the pivot is a great feature, especially if you do large spreadsheets.
I'm a little concerned with how many 'refurbished' units are flooding E-Bay and Amazon ... we'll have to see about reliability. (I've never seen so many rebuilds of one brand or model.)
