An outstanding multimedia solution from Sony!
By Michael C. Mitchell
My display is being put to dual use in a Windows XP / Macintosh OS X setup. It works greats in both environments. The picture is crisp and fluid at the same time, meaning that text looks sharp while pixilation is indiscernible when viewing high quality digital photos.With the PC: The display is set at 1280 x 768 resolution and is truly excellent.With the Mac: I use this display with my Apple iBook. Initially this caused a problem with the fact that the iBook does not output in widescreen format. I downloaded a fix to my iBook called "Screen Spanning Doctor" at http://www.rutemoeller.com/mp/ibook/ibook_e.html (WARNING, do not select the "clamshell" option during initial setup as this will not allow your iBook to properly dissipate heat during use and can cause serious damage to your iBook). Now I can display my iBook in widescreen at 1280 x 768 resolution.The truly awesome feature of this display however is that I do not have to switch any cables around. You can hook up a computer with an appropriate video card to the DVI connection port, a laptop to the standard VGA port, cable TV to the 75-ohm VHF/UHF coaxial port, standard or Super Video VCR or camcorder to the Standard/S-Video port, and your HD receiver / Satellite receiver / Progressive-Scan DVD Player to the Component video port. You can easily switch between all of them using the supplied Sony infrared remote control (RM-333). There is even Picture-in-Picture so you can watch TV while your working on the computer without over-taxing your computers processor and video card.Sound quality is very good using the three internal speakers (2 stereo & a sub-woofer) if set to SRS WOW.Overall I am very pleased with this display.
15 of 15 people found the following review helpful.great monitor/TV
By careful consumer
We bought this monitor/TV for our daughter to use with her Sony Vaio notebook in her dorm room. We thought it was great to have the TV included so there is one less thing in the room. It has by far the best quality display that we have seen on this type of monitor/TV, and we did a lot of shopping around before choosing this one. She can display one screen on the monitor (e.g., an internet source) while working on another screen on the notebook (e.g., a Word document), so it is a great set up. She can even add the distraction of a TV program by using the PIP function. It's really amazing.

By Steven Bott
This tv/monitor is excellent, especially considering the relatively low price. It looks great too. The PC resolution/picture is nice! The TV piture is great! I have not yet seen the HDTV but will very soon.The controls could be a little better. I would have liked the controls on the side of the monitor to have direct access to the 4 input sources like the remote has. The way it is now, you have to flip through each source to get to the right one if you use the controls on the monitor -- and that takes time because the sources don't seem to switch very fast. I also wish the remote had a one-touch key to move the placement of the PIP window. That has to be done using the menu (a few levels down). I like having the PIP window on the TV source while I am working on my PC, but I constantly run into the need to change the window location on the fly and it's not very simple to do.
