gateway 17 tft lcd screen quotation

This monitor is great for what it is and does. One of the feature I like is the LightView button that automatically adjusts your screen between night viewing, day viewing, night text reading and day text reading, or you can leave it on normal and have a bright screen that will light up brighter than a Christmas tree. I spend many hours on the computer and this feature is nice to have, rather than adjusting the brightness in the Nvidia control panel.

The monitor itself looks very good for its age and is not wide screen which is a plus for me. Everything else about this monitor is standard stuff. If you can find this monitor at a decent price then get it.

Gateway will announce on Thursday three of its latest models, which feature easy-to-use display settings and an adjustable stand for additional viewing positions. The $209.99 15-inch FPD1560, the $299.99 17-inch FPD1760 and the $349.99 19-inch FPD1960 LCD monitors are currently available direct and through Gateway"s retail partners, including Best Buy, Circuit City and CompUSA.

"They make sense from a value-add point of view--new Gateway PC customers will want their monitors to match their PCs, and LCDs are what they are constantly looking for," said Kelly Odle, a Gateway spokeswoman.

Gateway ranks third behind Dell and Hewlett-Packard in the North American LCD monitor market. Dell is by far the leader with more than 30 percent market share, while Gateway has about 5.5 percent of the market, according to research firm iSuppli.

LCD monitors succeeded cathode ray tube monitors in the United States over a year ago, and analysts expect them to dominate in the desktop market over the coming years. In the first quarter of 2004, LCD monitors made up 54.4 percent of the market. In the first quarter of this year, that number grew to 73.2 percent. By the first quarter of next year, LCD monitors will reach 92 percent, according to iSuppli.

About 57 percent of the LCD market is made up of 17-inch monitors, while 15-inch LCD monitors comprise about 28 percent. Monitors with 19-inch LCDs had about 11.4 percent of the market in the fourth quarter of last year.

However, LCD monitors, which come in smaller sizes than LCD televisions and don"t include TV components, are far less expensive. In fact, the traditionally volatile LCD market is at a low point, in terms of pricing, according to Rhoda Alexander, an iSuppli analyst.

Gateway is including patent-pending EzMenu on-screen display-setting technology, as well as analog and digital inputs, in the monitors. The monitors will also come with a removable base, making it easier for customers to mount the monitor. A $49 optional stand, the Ergotron Neo Flex LCD Stand, allows the height of the monitor to be adjusted up and down, swiveled left and right, and pivoted from landscape to portrait views.

The FPD1975W loses the Faroudja DCDi image processing and composite inputs, but it does have DVI-D with HDCP, 8ms refresh rate, 700:1 contrast ratio and 1440x900 screen resolution. It still has the autosensing rotation display switcher so you can view things in "longscreen". If you plan on doing quite a bit of your high-def viewing on the desktop and/or plan on getting a tuner card for your PC, this could be the monitor for you. It"s available now on Gateway"s website for $299.
