Better as a TV...., September 2, 2004
This review is from: Philips 180MT13P 18" LCD Monitor with TV Tuner (Personal Computers)
Well, I wanted a > 17" LCD monitor that doubled as a TV to save some space and thought this monitor would do the trick....It did, but sort of the reverse happened. It's a TV full-time. It's acceptable as a computer monitor, but barely so. If you read the specs on this thing, it looks like you've got the best of both worlds. As a TV, it's better than any CRT in my home. I have some dislikes: It's thick, twice as thick as the 19" LCD I bought to replace this as the computer monitor and it gets hot, the power-supply heats up quickly -- I usually turn off the power-strip this thing is connected to when I leave for work. I was planning to return it but ended up keeping it because I'm just lazy...
