NEC launches trio of spreadsheet-ready MultiSync LCDs
No matter how minor the updates, the steady march of progress continues in the desktop LCD market, and NEC has three new business-friendly MultiSyncs all primed to join that 24-incher we saw in September. The MultiSync 5 Series includes the 19-inch LCD195NXM, 20-inch MultiSync LCD205WNXM and 22-inch LCD225WNXM, with the latter two being of the widescreen variety. There's 5ms response times across the lot of them, and while NEC didn't mention resolutions, we're guessing they're all par for the course. The displays tout Vista compatibility, which seems no major feat, but part of that compatibility includes NEC's NaViSet software, which allows you to adjust display settings with your mouse and keyboard. Also included are down-firing speakers and a four port USB hub. The 19-incher will be out in late November for $300, while the other two will show up in December for $365 and $390, respectively.


















Interesting looking planet they've got there...
It's Mars before the great dry up.
How come there is no mention of the actual pixel resolution of these displays. I haven't managed to find it on the website yet either. It is really annoying as it is the first spec I look for.
$390 for a 24" sounds good to me, but I'd like to see some more specs too.
oh... 22" nevermind
Yawn. Wake me up when one of you guys launch a < 4ms 24 incher with VGA/DVI (maybe also HDMI) @ 1920x1200.
the main reason there isn't one of those is because all the manufacturers seem more interested in making s-pva/ mva/ s-ips monitors, which even though they have much better colour reproduction/viewing angles etc, cant match the response time of TN panels (most cheap ones).
Personally I would still go for the s-pva panels as a bit of a compromise. You don't appreciate how awesome the viewing angles are until you go back to a TN panel!
