4.0 out of 5 stars Great monitor, short cables, October 23, 2002

This review is from: KDS XF-9C XTreme Flat 19" CRT Monitor (Personal Computers)

This monitor is great for the price. The image quality is excellent on the 18" viewable flat screen. It has a max resolution of 1600x1200 at 75hz (contrary to what the official website says), and recommended at 1280x1024 at 85hz with a .20mm dot pitch. The only thing keeping me from giving it five stars is that the cord that connects to the computer is only about two or three feet long which means most people will have to buy an extension cable too. Otherwise, highly recommended...

2.0 out of 5 stars Looked great until it stopped working!, January 8, 2003

This review is from: KDS XF-9C XTreme Flat 19" CRT Monitor (Personal Computers)

The picture was great and the on-screen control display managed to shape up what seemed to be a horribly distorted image. When I first turned on the monitor the image was so terribly warped that I flinched and figured I had to ship it back, but the on screen display appeared and after 5-10 minutes of adjustment, all was quite well. The image was sharp and bright for about 1.5 weeks. One evening I noticed everything was a little dark. After about 10-15 minutes, it looked as if I'd turned the contrast down to 0. In fact, I brought up the OSD and turned the contrast down to 0, and there was no difference in picture at that point. ...and then I replaced it. I bought its replacement, a KDS-XF9e at ...for $...including tax. This is another KDS Xtreme Flat 19" monitor, very similar to this one, and I've had it for a week or two and it has been performing well.

This seems to be a very nice montior for the price, so you might as well give it a try. I work in IT at a company that uses KDS monitors at our workstations, and approximately 1 out of 4 that we receive fails out of the box or shortly thereafter. I figure you have a 75% chance at a great monitor for a great price.

I have had this monitor for well over a year and without exception has performed very well. Colors, images, display are very easy for system usage.
