HP W2007 20-inch Widescreen Flat Panel LCD Monitor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This monitor is my first LCD and was an upgrade to a ViewSonic 17".I cannot get over how beautiful the colors and picture are.I find myself loading up old games and DVDs just to examine the quality.

It does not come with a DVI cable which I could not find any indication of on the box itself.Also, the information listed here on Amazon under "Technical Details" and "Product Description" differs in regards to the supported resolution.The "Technical Details" are correct.The suggested resolution is 1680 x 1050 and not 1440 x 900.I suspect the smaller resolution is probably correct for the 19" w1907 model.

I did not have a DVI cable already, so at first connected it using the included 15 pin cable and was very impressed on first use.Then I managed to get a DVI-D M/M cable and was even more impressed at the gorgeous picture quality.Definitely worth the extra purchase of a DVI cable.Just don't buy one at a local store where they go for upwards of 50 bucks.Amazon is a wonderful and very affordable alternative.

Mainly my experience with this monitor is in a Windows XP SP2 environment, although I do have a dual boot with Mandriva Linux.The printed instructions that came with the hardware were limited to a simplistic poster which was clear enough and the Windows software installation from the included CD went quickly and flawlessly.Getting the monitor setup in the Linux environment, however, was a bit of a chore and I still have yet to get it do display in the maximum resolution of 1680 x 1050.But that is probably more related to my own challenges using Linux.

I highly recommend this product.The widescreen aspect is outstanding for DVDs and iTunes videos.World of Warcraft never looked so beautiful on my system.In fact it's performed beautifully for every game I've thrown at it so far: WoW, Quake3, BF1942, BF2.Couldn't be happier.Except with maybe a 30". ;)
