19 inch HP w1907: New Year New Computer Monitor

Filed in archive home office tools on December 30, 2007

It's almost 2008! I know it's bad to think about spending when the last page of calendar's just about to be turned. But I can't help but dream of a new computer monitor. And after reading a review of the hp w1907, a 19 inch widescreen LCD computer monitor, I can't just stop thinking about it.

The glossy-screened w1907 did do very well in PC World Test Center text tests, producing agreeably sharp text in office documents and Web pages alike. It garnered enough praise to raise its score to Very Good in that test segment. It did fine on our graphics test, getting a Good from the judges. They gave it high marks for natural colors on a photo of colorful fruits and Web pages. Skin-tone reproduction and screen brightness, although good, slightly paled in comparison with other monitors. via

Although not a full head on workhorse, it sounds and looks definitely better than my old monitor. What do you think of it? At $230 a pop, will you be replacing your old monitor with this HP LCD monitor or got something else in mind?
