What You Should Know about the FLAT PANEL MNTR L1702 2 TONE TCO99 (HP (Hewlett-Packard)-P9621D)

Short On Desk Space? Older Aspect Ratio May Allow a Little More Elbow Room

Once the dominant shape of both televisions and desktop monitors, 4:03 aspect ratio displays such as this one are falling from favor as people want to a more cinematic experience from their displays. With this dimension, you don't get as much extra horizontal space, which can be handy for application palettes or for viewing documents side-by-side.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: nice clear display, when its working

Weaknesses: Has an extremely high failure rate

Overall Evaluation: These monitors have an attractive price and good initial (out-of-the-box) quality. However, after a couple weeks of use they started exhibiting problems.I help keep up the computer systems for a fairly large clinic. We recently ordered 8 of these monitors. So far, 3 of these 8 monitors have failed in exactly the same manner. The screen will turn a bright, light teal color with occasional flickers of bright pink. It almost looks like the monitor stops interpreting the input signal properly. There is no fix, short of returning it to the manufacturer. These are cheap monitors. We've had nearly a 40% failure rate amount them. Please, buyer beware.
