What You Should Know about the UltraSharp 3008WFP

Widescreen Monitor Offers Extra Viewing Space for HD Video, Gaming, and Work Apps

Widescreen displays such as this one have become more popular as people discover the benefits of the extra horizontal space for application palettes, viewing documents side by side, and for a more cinematic experience when watching movies or playing video games. This is a 16:10 widescreen display capable of displaying high-definition video, but it is a bit taller than the 16:09 aspect ratio found on most HDTVs, so some letterboxing will be necessary to fill the space above and below the video window.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: HUGE, BRIGHT, ULTRA-HIGH RESOLUTION. Excellent build quality and a handsome monitor!

Weaknesses: Price, unless you find a deal. You also need a monster graphics card of course.

Overall Evaluation: Only the price was stopping me from buying one. Originally they were $1,999 last year and Dell's retail price is now $1,699.00. I got a sweet deal for $1,409 from Rochester Computer 800.394.8404. They said sale would go through August.
