 The last reason to own a floor-standing PC has just left the room November 21, 2009
John Mulvihill (San Francisco Bay Area)
Until recently there were still reasons to own a general-purpose PC in floor-standing rather than laptop configuration: You could swap video cards to enhance canvas size and image quality; you could have quick access to a LAN; you could install extra fans to keep the whole thing from going postal; you could have room on your desk for a photo of Mom.
There were plenty more reasons "power users" remained loyal to the mainframe paradigm. Without even acknowledging the Freudian "size" discrepancy, pre-Y2K laptops demanded every sort of compromise on the user's part. They were slow, they had lousy keyboards and screens, and they were not even very portable. In the old days, a systems operator worth his Fortran wouldn't trade his hornrims on an original Compaq.
But now, to coin a metaphor, the shoe is on the other foot. Today's laptops sport duo-core processors and multi-gig RAM-paks that make short work of everyday office computing. And if you want an auxiliary display that's as big as the one that came with your 10-year-old's gaming system, you can have that, too. Virtually all laptops have external-display ports. If you choose wisely, your second display can perform as well as your laptop without exceeding its cost.
I remember the days when, to get anywhere near the image size, resolution, and quality this Acer provides, I'd have to add an additional zero to the price tag. That's no exaggeration, folks! Those of us old enough to remember, think back to CAD workstations and Sony 21" CRTs.
After six years of abuse, my Toshiba M15 laptop has consistently refused to break down, and it wasn't until Windows 7 came along that I had an excuse to replace it. (Windows 7 wants more RAM than the old laptops could deliver.) Though my new Toshiba P500 comes with a brilliant 18.4" display, my dub-sized V223 makes the Toshi's screen seem almost inadequate.
Toshiba Satellite A505-S6995 - Core 2 Duo P7450 / 2.13 GHz - RAM 6 GB - HDD 500 GB - DVD?RW (?R DL) / DVD-RAM - GF GT 230M TurboCache - IEEE 802.11n - WLAN : 802.11b/g/n - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - 16" Widescreen TFT 1366 x 768 ( WXGA ) TruBrite -...
Since computer displays are the user's eyes in the virtual world, there can almost be no such thing as too many of them, or too much. The tradition of one display per computer is nothing more than tradition. So is the notion that a "serious" PC must weigh 20 lb. and sit on the floor.
It's time to, as Apple used to say, think different. A good starting point would be an Acer V223. Or two.
excellent value November 14, 2009
David Schwartz
Excellent quality and very good value for the price. No reason to buy a newer pricier model. The plastic base on which it mounts is a bit cheesy but doesn't really matter for long run functioning. I'd recommend it.
 Short Lived November 13, 2009

Monitor worked fine until the return date had passed. Then it developed a heavy black vertical line directly down the center of the screen and some of the on-screen text started to run together. Emails to Acer have gone unanswered thus far.
 It is what it is....GREAT November 12, 2009
Chris Baldwin (Cleveland, Ohio)
I am really pleased with the Acer V223-WBD 22inch monitor. I always buy Samsung, but recently had a Samsung monitor I purchased a year ago go down. I was very frustrated about it because of the price and my experience with Samsung had always been positive before. It was a real let down.
So, started looking at Samsung and a few other more expensive brands on Amazon. I liked the products but not the price. Our office IT guy recommended Acer and said the quality for the price was excellent. Read the reviews on this model and found them to be spot on.
It's easy to set up. Picture quality and resolution are excellent. Overall, a good product and honestly probably better than the Samsung I purchased a year ago which is in the trash.
Not a lot of bells or whistles but I would recommend it to anyone. Good luck!
Performance and value November 11, 2009
John Ruotolo (Norwalk, CT USA)
Excellent performance in typical small office use. Equal to or better than other recently purchased LCD's costing more than twice the price.
