- Bottom Line:
- We wouldn't pay more than $200 or so for any 19-inch LCD, but if you need a smaller screen and can find Acer's p191w for that price, we'd recommend it. It's a basic display with no speakers or HDCP-support, but its image quality and sleek design make up for any lacking secondary features.

Good Monitor for the price
by harry2sundown on June 20, 2011
Pros: When looking at text, the letters are very clear not like 95% of the monitors out there. If you eye sight is good enough to count the pixels you will see a very striking difference. I paid about $100 for the monitor and found it to preform better than mos
Cons: The buttons are very poor. It is very difficult to set up the monitor. The on /off switch will not work any more. If I did not use a power strip, I would of tossed the monitor out. With luck you will only use the switches once.
You can not use the moniSummary: I still like the CRT monitors, but the days of the CRT are gone. This is one of the wide screens that come close to the sharpness of a CRT.

Great monitor for the price!
by tbalon2 on June 6, 2009
Pros: Easy set up, comes with both VGA and DVI cables, 1440 x 900 native resolution @ 60 Hz
Cons: no printed guide to OSD operation, text was not as clear as I liked to begin with, but after tweaking, it is good.
Summary: Bought this monitor to replace a 19 in. CRT. All the reviews I read were favorable and the price could not be beat. I am very happy with this purchase ...
Summary: Bought this monitor to replace a 19 in. CRT. All the reviews I read were favorable and the price could not be beat. I am very happy with this purchase and would buy again if needed. I have had to tweak the system to get a good text display as it seemed to be somewhat jaggy to start with. I boosted the refresh rate to 75hz and that seemed to help. I like the wide screen display, gives extra room for pics and videos.

Summary: When I bought this monitor, there were not user reviews. I bought my monitor at Circuit City since it was on sale. I bought 17" Acer monitors before and have had been very pleased. The quality is superb and there are no dead pixels. It is worth the money. I gave it a 9 because of the lack of height adjustment option. I am a very happy consumer.
