The HP LP2465 shined in our CNET Labs' DisplayMate-based tests, literally. It's one of the brightest displays we've tested; its score of 397 lumens is a third higher than that of the Dell UltraSharp. Also impressive, its actual contrast ratio of 1025:1 went above HP's spec for the display of 1000:1. Text looked sharp down to the smallest legible fonts; colors were vivid with accurate skin tones. Games moved smoothly, but DVDs exhibited some jagged movements and blurriness.

This isn't the right monitor, however, if your primary interest is watching DVDs or using it for other forms of multimedia entertainment. What the monitor does is provide ample screen real estate for graphics artists and multitasking office workers. Full-screen images look positively gigantic, and you can comfortably work with two windows opened side by side. At its native resolution, the LP2465 can display 55 rows and 29 columns (at their default settings) in Excel.

The HP LP2465 comes with an industry-standard three-year limited warranty that includes the backlight. Tech support is available 24/7 in English and Spanish. In addition to calling, you can e-mail questions to HP's tech support or chat online with an HP support technician. Drivers, manuals, and access to HP's Business Support Center are also available on the HP Web site.

    Summary: We're happy to report, therefore, that the HP addresses each and every one of the rivals weakness. An upgrade S-IPS panel delivers improved black levels, much more vibrant colours and near faultless viewing angles. We likewise doff our collective headgear

    Summary: Apart from that it's pretty much plug-and-play all the way, as you'd expect from the likes of HP. The silver/grey screen surround makes the device look less plastic-y than some of the others here, and on the whole build quality feels high, and the price i
