Hitachi CML174SXW
17IN LCD 1280X1024 CML174 264MM 75HZ 400:1 IVORY (Hitachi-CML174SXW) Review, by Mick Lockey April 8, 2003
WHAT'S HOT: Letters on sample text documents looked fairly sharp. A test showed even brightness across the edges of the screen.
WHAT'S NOT: The unit doesn't have USB ports, built-in speakers, or audio input jacks. While these extras aren't critical, we've seen them on other models in the same price range.
WHAT ELSE: The monitor's image-quality scores for text and graphics placed it squarely in the middle of the pack. On a color-scale test screen, gradations of colors were overly dark and hard to discern at the farthest edges of the color scale. On the upside, the panel rendered lively colors on a photo of summer fruit, displaying deep reds and kiwi greens.
The LCD cannot pivot or swivel on its base, but it can tilt back about 30 degrees. The panel can be detached and mounted on a wall with an optional bracket.
Hitachi's documentation includes a user's manual with chapters covering installation, using the on-screen controls, and troubleshooting common problems.
UPSHOT: Though it's not as stylish as other units, this no-frills LCD would suit those who spend most of their day working with typical business documents; however, better bargains are available.

Strengths: DVI/VGA, integrated power supply, high quality,very sharp, colorful images
Weaknesses: refresh rate max. 75, no pivot
Overall: Very nice all around monitor. I was shocked @ the quality. Highly recommended. Not too heavy. Supports DVI (a big improvement from VGA) If you have one and use VGA, i highly recommend getting a new graphics card that supports DVI. Definatly worth it.
Sorry, the product you requested isn't currently available from any of our sellers.
