Title: Great Color quality Date: June 19, 2007
ProsI Got this monitor when I purchased a comlete system about a year ago and in my opinion the Dell FP monitors have the best picture sharpness that I've ever seen in a FP. I also own a 19" non Dell FP on one of my other desktops and since its a higher quality monitor, it doesn't match the Dells for vivid color crispness.
ConsThe only problem that I see is the size. It is way too small for what I used it for so I upgraded to a Dell 22" wide screen. So if your looking to buy a FP, you may want to think of looking for something bigger unless you want to squint your eyes.

Title: A Great Monitor For Basic Applications Date: May 3, 2007
ProsA great monitor if you use basic applications like word processing, spreadsheet editing, powerpoint creating and Emailing...basically everything restricted to use for ones job. Unless you really push the limits with multitasking with sevral applications and windows, this will be the most efficient monitor. Packed into a sleek LCD size panel with basic features and excellent image quality, this monitor makes the ideal choice for a busy businessman.
ConsI'll get straight to the point...if you're looking for a monitor for multimedia, recreation, intense web browsing or movie watching, GET OUTTA HERE. The size of this screen just cuts it for the basics, never mind graphic applications. It's a great monitor for strcitly WORK.

Review:You wouldn't be making a mistake buying this monitor as long as what you're doing remains strictly confined to basic programs. The moment you go on to bigger applications with the need for size and graphic ability, you're going to either be squinting or forgetting the whole thing. Personally, made advice is to upgrade for the few more dollars it will cost you to a 17" monitor, so you won't regret investing in this when you realize going beyond the basics with computing is nearly inevitable, and doing it on this screen can be painful

ProsA lot of people think a 15" LCD monitor is too small, but I have been using it for two years, and it's plenty big enough for everyday casual use for internet surfing and stuff. This is a high quality monitor which looks great.
ConsNone.

Title: Good "Little "Monitor Date: February 16, 2007
ProsClear, Sharp Images. The Auto Adjust Feature is a plus for this monitor.
ConsNone, other than its size.

Review:I have used this monitor (came with new system) for about 5 months and it has performed well. It is a basic 15 inch monitor that does provide really good images. I would highly reccomend spending the extra money to upgrade to a larger monitor when ordering a new PC. ( The 1 star rating reflects that you can buy a 19 inch widescreen or 17 inch LCD for what this 15 inch costs!)
