Amazon.com Product Description

The C793DF from Samsung is a 17-inch (16-inch viewable image size) CRT monitor with a DynaFlat screen and three different brightness settings designed to work with a variety of applications. With its 1,280 x 1,024 maximum resolution and fine 0.20 mm horizontal dot pitch, the C793DF delivers high-quality display images that are accurate and easy to see, while its anti-glare screen treatment helps to reduce reflections and the resulting eyestrain.

The monitor supports RGB analog input signals through its 15-pin mini D-sub connection. Its power supply consumes about 80 watts during normal operation. The C793DF has 30 to 70 kHz horizontal and 50 to 160 Hz vertical scanning frequencies and a 110 MHz maximum bandwidth. Weighing 31.5 pounds, the monitor has a 15.8-by-14.9-inch footprint, which fits easily onto most desktops. Compatible with PC, Mac, and Sun Microsystems operating systems, the C793DF comes backed by a three-year warranty on parts, labor, and CRT.

1.0 out of 5 stars Brown lines and bad customer service, March 6, 2006
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster C793DF-T/T 17" CRT Monitor (Silver/Black) (Electronics)
I have the same brown lines problem, but with a 793MB syncmaster. I put up with it for a while, then called customer service. They said they would ship a new monitor, and pick up the old one for free. Well the shipping to me was free, although the return was not. I called customer service with the name and extension of the person that had told me the return was free, and the supervisor did not budge. To top it off, the brand new montitor has WORSE brown lines than the old one. I have to hit the monitor very hard to get them to stop.

All and all, b/c of the TERRIBLE customer service, I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING SAMSUNG AGAIN. These companies need to realize that it is more worth it for them to suck up $20 in shipping rather than lose a customer for life.

1.0 out of 5 stars BROWN IS THE COLOR, April 25, 2006
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster C793DF-T/T 17" CRT Monitor (Silver/Black) (Electronics)
DITTO, for the mishaps everybody is having: the lines, the customer services, the shipping labels, the reburbished recurrences, the executives, the selective CEO amnesia, NEED I say more?? I have a brand new ATI video card, and bought this CRT instead of LCD because, I have experience in gaming with these rather than the latter ones. Boy!!! going to use my AMEX extended warranty on this one. ALl I need is have an authorized repair shop declare
"beyond repair" to get my money back. Amex only need documentation. (receipts,statements etc) SAMSUNG..you guys know you have been sued before...you have patent problems too. too bad

1.0 out of 5 stars Samsung Headache, January 2, 2006
By 
Elli S. (Point Roberts, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster C793DF-T/T 17" CRT Monitor (Silver/Black) (Electronics)
Well I got this one for my boyfriend, and the brown lines showed up the second day. I took it to the repair/warranty place and they at first claimed to fix it, but as soon as I got it home, the brown lines came back. Back to the repair shop, where they claimed to replace it, but it had the same serial number as the original model.

So I called Samsung and got a brand new one in the mail in a *very* battered box. The styrofoam was even crumbled to bits. This model was from China, not the Philippines. The brown lines are *worse* this time and I am about to contact them again to try to get another trade-in.

As a side note, a friend of mine had the same experience, but Samsung gave him a trade-up to an MB model. He hooked it up in a dual-monitor setup and found that the colour is horribly amber tinted, so he's going to return that one, too.

As another side note, I purchased the black and silver 793DF model and have had no problems at all yet.
