Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The 19-inch LCD19D LCD panel from Princeton is about equivalent to a 21-inch CRT in terms of viewable image size and recommended resolutions. Its Automatic Auto Adjusting feature delivers crisp text and aligns the image from edge to edge. 1,280 x 1,024 native resolution displays a crisp, clear picture; the monitor is capable of scaling to lower resolutions as needed.

The 25 ms fast video response time is optimal for the playback of multimedia movie clips, spreadsheets, word processing, and playing games. Digital and analog inputs delivers maximum compatibility for both analog and digital video sources. Built-in stereo speakers eliminate desktop clutter.

This monitor is VESA wall/arm mount ready (bracket sold separately). Wall and arm mount capabilities save space and support custom application environments. The LCD19D is backed by a three-year limited warranty on parts, labor, and backlight.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Good for Gaming/Movies, December 19, 2004

This review is from: Princeton LCD19D 19" LCD Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)
If you play games or watch movies on your monitor this is NOT the monitor for you. I bought the Costco version (VL1916). It is identical to the LCD19D (except the 19D has a 3 year warranty instead of 1 for the VL1916). The response time is 25ms which is too slow for gaming and/or video. There is a LOT of ghosting when playing games and enough while watching movies that I found it annoying and had to return the unit.

Be careful when you read reviews of LCD monitors by end users. Most people don't judge them very carefully, they're just impressed by the bright, sharp pictures.

For everyday use (browsing the web, reading email, Word, Excel, etc.) this monitor is fine. It does have bright (very bright) colors and the display is sharp. However I would strongly recommend getting an LCD with a 16ms or lower refresh rate for gaming and/or video.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good digital/Poor analog performance- watch out for rebate scam, February 1, 2005
This review is from: Princeton LCD19D 19" LCD Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)
Monitor is good, in fact Monitor is better than the 2 stars I gave it when used with DVI digital out. I especially like the dual analog and digital inputs. Analog input was a little fuzzy and I wondered whther it was a mistake to have purchased the LCD. Fortunately I had a Radeon 9600 card with digital out to install. Plugged in the card and fired up the computer with the digital DVI cable connected. The difference was like night and day. Fuzzy unclear image became a crisp, sharp and the colors stand out. Great digital out performance.
Sound control is poor. The monitor's sound volume is very loud at the lowest settings.

Now regarding the rebate, be careful and read everything. The Princeton scam is with the expiration date versus the "must be submitted in 14 days". They are in conflict so don't get caught by reading the "due by end of month" scam. The monitor took a few days to arrive coupled with the Christmas holiday season. By the time I filled out the form 15 days had passed since I had purchased product and Princeton denied the $100 rebate. I won't be purchasing from them again, even if it not my money.

Bottomline, if you don't have digital out (DVI) from your video card forget this monitor. If you do and don't mind little control for the sound volume, go for it as long as there is no rebate. If you really want the rebate, forget about it. Watchout cause Princeton is counting on you missing 2 week deadline. Poor strategy for a struggling manufacturer to $#@#w its customers rather than provide good product, price, and service.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's time!, September 19, 2004
By 
Jeffery S. Forrest (Long Beach, California United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Princeton LCD19D 19" LCD Monitor (Black) (Personal Computers)
I've lived happily with a 19" CRT monitor for the last several years because the flat screens were expensive and had some performance drawbacks. But this monitor is a great price for a 19" LCD and has lots of great features (especially the wider viewing angle). The picture is crystal clear and it uses much less energy than CRT's do.

I'm running it with the all-digial DVI connection and I am very happy with the performance. I have read some reviews from people who use the older (but still common) analog connection, and some of them seem less happy with the image quality.

It's a nice big screen with a clear picture and I am very happy to reclaim a big piece of desktop space that used to be covered up with my big CRT.
