I bought it from Micro Anvika (London, England) and it is excellent in every way. a) Beautiful image quality, whether as an expanded work area for my MacBook or for watching DVDs and streaming video. b) Swivels in all directions, incuding to portrait (90 degrees) making browsing the web or doing pagemakeup a breeze. (Yes, the Mac supports rotating monitors out of the box!) c) Excellent ergonomics and industrial design. d) Very well made. So, if my 200XW is anything to go by, these new models should be excellent.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wonderkid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 30th 2007 4:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Philips boasts of "sharpest-ever images" with new LCD monitor line]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wish Philips would stop building system after system "dynamically" screwing with the picture that in the end translate to more mush and artifacts.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bad Beaver]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 30th 2007 4:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Philips boasts of "sharpest-ever images" with new LCD monitor line]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yes, thank you.

Especially since Philips has been sinking endless capacities into these systems since the 90s - without much improvement ever since. Smearing, ghosting...  Problem is that at Philips' usual price points, all effort is pointless. This is a computer display now, but when you look at TVs, a halfway decent standalone scaler will easily exceed the price of your regular run of the mill Philips set that is crammed full of "enhancers". All you can hope for is that all of them can be turned off.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bad Beaver]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 30th 2007 5:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Philips boasts of "sharpest-ever images" with new LCD monitor line]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</guid><description><![CDATA[Pfft, I'm looking for a new monitor, but I won't buy anyting smaller than 24".]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bjorn_ahlm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 30th 2007 5:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Philips boasts of "sharpest-ever images" with new LCD monitor line]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah just what I've been wondering. I've had my 24" Dell for more than 2 years now. Why are these stupid manufacturers releasing a new 20" or 22" every day now? Who cares the Dell 24" are around $450 (if you know where to look) and easily available.<br><br>Why are these companies bringing out these low-margin products that sell for less than $450 every day? Can't they make a 27" or 30" or something like that and actually make some decent profit? They can mark up those right now because a lot of us are willing to pay for bigger monitors with good features (don't count the Dell 3007 or 2707 among them, unlike the 2407 they took out the component video input and other inputs on the bigger models).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sr1329]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 30th 2007 5:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Philips boasts of "sharpest-ever images" with new LCD monitor line]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/30/philips-boasts-of-sharpest-ever-images-with-new-lcd-monitor-li/</guid><description><![CDATA[A pixel is a pixel.
