| agent_86's Full Review: AOC LM 800 18 inch LCD Monitor |
The AOC LM800 is 18.1" viewable, bright, clear and lightweight. Wait! Don't forget affordable too! At around $500, it's a great deal. It's Everything a LCD monitor should be and after three months of using it, I will never go back to a CRT monitor. My 50 pound 19" CRT monitor now sits unused in a closet.
I'm using this monitor with WindowsXP but it doesn't matter what operating system you use, things can only look better with this monitor. Text and graphics are noticeably sharper. I am running WindowsXP at this monitors highest supported resolution of 1280x1024 and I'm loving it!
I have also used this monitor for games. Although it doesn't support refresh rates as high as some CRT's, It has not affected my game play of any fast paced 1st person shooters.
Here are some specs:
18.1" Diagonal, .028mm Pixel Pitch
1280x1024 Maximum Resolution, 135Mhz pixel frequency
OSD (On Screen Display) Control
Wall mountable with VESA arm and bracket (not included)
Plug & Play
Another feature I like about the AOC LM800 is that you never have to adjust any screen sizes. The monitor auto-adjusts when you change resolution sizes in your operating system. No more horizontal and vertical adjusting! Also, LCD monitors don't need to be degaussed!
Theres one more benefit to LCD monitors in general. LCD monitors use 1/3 the power of CRT monitors! You can actually save money on your next electric bill!
I paid $525 and got free shipping from http://www.DiscountComputerDepot.com and it's worth every penny.
I give this product 5 out of 5 stars. AOC really hit a home run with this monitor. For the money, you will not get a bigger or better LCD monitor!
