Its soft curves, rich piano black finish, clear acrylic accent bar and integrated cable housing lend distinctive style and sophistication to your desk. The 16:9 aspect ratio provides more room for multitasking, while the 5ms response, exclusive Samsung picture technologies and 15,000:1 dynamic contrast mean razor-sharp, detailed motion video. And a Custom Key gives you one-touch access to the picture optimization function you use most. With the Samsung 2033SW, it's not hard to imagine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Looks great, no problems, August 7, 2009

By	S. Winterich (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Samsung 2033SW 20-Inch Widescreen LCD Monitor (Electronics)

Set up is easy, performance and value are good and appearance is nice. Set monitor control in Windows XP to 1600 x 900.
Attaching the stand is tricky. I paid $140.00 plus tax at wholesale club.

Lay the monitor face down on carpet against the wall to keep the piece steady. Take care not to scratch or force anything. The "arrow" side of the "ball" faces the front of the monitor, and the "straight line" side faces you/faces up. Gently but firmly pop the the "ball" into the socket. Then lift the monitor and ball however you feel comfortable and attach and screw the bottom base to the "ball." Diagram enclosed with the monitor is not as clear as it can be.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sleek and beautiful, with a frustrating stand set-up, July 31, 2009

By	Mr. M - See all my reviews

This review is from: Samsung 2033SW 20-Inch Widescreen LCD Monitor (Electronics)

I bought this at a local brick & mortar shop. I am putting together a computer set-up for my classroom (with mac mini) and was going to go with a cheaper Acer model until I saw them in the store. This Samsung looked impressive on display: sturdy and sleek, with a picture that popped. The border is glossy - much like my Samsung television. The border on the Acer looked and felt like cheap plastic.

Like another reviewer, I had a problem with the stand. You can't be gentle with it. I covered the top of my couch with a sheet, put the monitor face up on it, then shoved in the stand as hard as I could.

Since then, there have been no problems. I love this monitor!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good monitor, July 28, 2009

By	Frank (Chadds Ford, PA, United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Samsung 2033SW 20-Inch Widescreen LCD Monitor (Electronics)

Just purchased from a big box store for 10 bucks cheaper than Amazon. You really can't beat the value of this performance for the price. I've owned several Samsung monitors, and all have been excellent. Great picture quality, and longevity. As one reviewer noted, the method of attaching the base to the monitor is a little odd, but once you line up the pegs & holes, it snugs right up.

It does all the things you expect a monitor to do. Windows XP sees it right away & lets me set the resolution to 1600x900 - didn't even need to install the included software.

Also, for those who don't know the lingo, the "15 pin D-Sub" connection is the VGA connection than most PCs made in the last 10 years use. No worries about connectivity.
