4.0 out of 5 stars It's a decent montior, October 30, 2009

It was easy to set-up, it was easy to install, it was visually pleasing and it was at a affordable price. Although, there is one flaw to this monitor and that is the integrated speakers.

I would have difficulties hearing sounds from the speakers. I have tried resolving that problem through recommended solutions on the web; however after countless hours, I have given up.

In conclusion, I would suggest to those people who are looking for a monitor with decent integrated speakers to skip this product; however if you don't care for integrated speakers, I would recommend this. 3.6/5

Other than not noticing there are no USB ports, I am quite satisfied with the product although I would not recommend this for older computers. The shipping was fast and the monitor was securely packaged. I am using this on a 2002 Toshiba laptop and it works quite well although I had to download an updated driver for it. I have just become accustomed to the stretched screen and other than that I am pleased with the price and the product.

Good, inexpensive monitor. Not the sharpest, and the speakers leave much to be desired, but for the price, I don't think you will go wrong. I've had no problems whatsoever.
