Great monitor!
I purchased this monitor to go with my MacPro 15" laptop. Because of all the great Amazon reviews, I was all ready to buy a Samsung for about $100 more, but when I saw how crisp and clear my boss's HP display was I changed my mind and purchased the HP L2208w. I love it! The color is a little cooler than my laptop display but it's totally adjustable through the Monitor>Color>Calibration>Advanced control panel. The display is crisp with full color and saturation ranges and nice deep blacks for pho...

Replaced my old NEC 1700M+ LCD Monitor with this
Where to start....
I have been using a NEC 1700M+ LCD Monitor since 2001, and paid $1000.00 for that monitor. This HP L2208W LCD Monitor replaced it, for $182.00, including s/h.
Even tho I did not buy this HP L2208W Monitor on Amazon, I will say a bit about it here.
This is a great monitor. It is BRIGHT and CLEAR. I opted for This particular model over the HP w2207h because of the Anti-Glare screen, and I really don't need my monitor to flip sideways like the w2207h ...

A nice enough monitor with a VAST flaw.
If, like me, you use this with a Windoze laptop that has a screen resolution different from the 1680x1050 that this monitor INSISTS on using then you are in for some occasional trouble. The problem is that, even if it can display the resolution that the Windoze box comes up with, it will only do so for a few minutes. After that it pops up a message saying "going to sleep" and does. I would like to throttle the self satisfied little twerp who decided this was a good solution. So if your idiot MS ...

Perfect for 'mature' users
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This is the perfect monitor for our 'mature' users: a huge 22" wide with a 1440x900 resolution, same resolution as the 19" wide we have been buying. everybody wants a big flat wide screen monitor but then complain that 'everything is so small'. you lower the resolution and of course now it is fuzzy. hard to find a happy medium betw...

Fantastic Monitor/TV
I bought this monitor as a second monitor for my computer. I already have a Samsung 22" and was about to buy another one but when I saw the price of this monitor, I thought I would try it out.
I have to say this monitor is fantastic. The picture is clear and sharp. And the best part is that I have my cable box HDMI output to go into HDMI input of this monitor through a switcher. So now I can switch between cable TV and my second monitor without any trouble, and since the input is HDMI, I g...

Wonderful Monitor
This monitor is terrific. Set up was a snap, it looks elegant, and the controls are easy to use. It has an auto-setup that worked fine; I fiddled with some settings after the auto, but couldn't improve anything. Highly recommended.

Excellent Monitor
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: This monitor is fantastic. I had an Acer 20 inch widescreen with a 19 inch acer using dual monitors, sold my 19 inch to a roommate and bought this monitor (although not from Newegg, $70 cheaper elsewhere). Now i have a dual monitor setup with my 20 inch and this beast of a monitor and, although it might defy logic, my acer 20 inch dwarfs in comparison and overall quality. The color and brightn...

return item
Ordered this monitor by mistake and they not only responded immediately but they assisted me on shipping the item back to them and paid the return postage. It was unbelievable service by this company. Thank you.

NOT 1440 x 900 recommended
Tech Level: high
Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Monitor looks good, has tilt, and overall is a good picture
Cons: This is not a recommended 1440 x 900 resolution but rather the overall standard 1680 x 1050. The monitor is capable of displaying that resolution but its not native which does tend to blurr a bit versus the higher resolution.
Other Thoughts: I should have ...
