LCDs for students |
|
||
 Lara Luepke Assistant editor |
Updated November 17, 2005 Students are well known for their penny-pinching habits: living off ramen and Mac 'n' Cheese, shopping at thrift stores, and frequenting happy hour (for the savings, of course). Students can apply their thrifty tactics to picking out an LCD monitor. Along with being inexpensive, these LCDs have clear, sharp text for writing papers and reading research. The displays also have small form factors, which will come in handy for those many moves ahead. And though it may cost a bit more than a monitor alone, the Sony MFM-HT75W, a monitor/TV multifunction display, could save space and money. Check out these picks for student-ready LCDs.

| Review summary | A run-of-the-mill but very adjustable LCD with snap-on accessory cups and photo clips that should appeal to admin assistants and the inveterately sentimental. | The EN7410 is inexpensive, but for a few more beans, you'll get better image quality and adjustability with the Envision EN7220. | The Sony MFM-HT75W is a snazzy, well-designed dual-purpose LCD that will please those who want a display that can work and play simultaneously. | The feature-starved Sharp LL-173C-B is a low-priced business LCD with average image quality and a corporate appearance. |
