Consumer review (newegg.com)

great value, plugged in and it worked great!

If you are looking for a great 24" price-point monitor, this is for you. If you need bells and whistles, you are going to need to fork out more $$$

bright screen, clear and great viewing

price point monitor only has DVI/VGA ports, does not have HDMI or any USB ports.

Looks great

Picture quality ( a bit washed out) ; Build quality - felt a bit flimsy ; Firmware adjustments (NOT very user friendly) ; Included power cord length (barely 4 feet.) ; That last little $$$-saving marketing decision on Acer's part necessitated an...
