NEC MultiSync EA109M standard-aspect LCD monitors
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Displays

NEC looks to be trying to squeeze every last penny out of the non-16:9 monitor marketplace with the MultiSync EA109M. It has 1280 x 1024 resolution, five millisecond response time, 4-way ergonomic stand, 900:1 contrast ratio, and black bezel finish. We know, completely underwhelming. What’s worse, though, is they are pricing it at $259, ensuring that no one but out-of-date government agencies and schools will be purchasing them.

Unibody MacBook Pro 15-inch finally gets matte display option
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Design, PC / Laptop

When Apple launched the unibody MacBook Pros, one of the loudest cries we heard from the Mac community was in relation to the loss of the matte display option. You see, while Apple touted colors that “pop” a bit more off of the glossy screen, those of us who like to be, you know, mobile with our notebook computers, cried foul. The problem with a glossy-only option (or lack of option, really) is that if you are using your MacBook Pro in the sun, you essentially have a screen that can double as a mirror.
Well, Apple has heard those cries, and has finally brought a matte screen option to the 15-inch MacBook Pro, something that the 17-inch unibody version has had since the get-go. It’ll cost you an extra $50 for the privilege, and you also lose the black “borderless” infinity bezel around the screen, and instead get a silver bezel like previous versions of the MacBook Pro.

Dell’s E2010H, E2210H, and ST2310 LCD Displays
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Displays, HDTV, PC / Laptop, Peripherals

Dell is no stranger to the display business, which may explain why they have launched three new models, seemingly without letting anyone know about them. The 22-inch E2210H and 20-inch E2010H are $199 and $139, respectfully. The E2210H has a full HD resolution, while the E2010H sports 1600 x 900 pixels. The other is the ST2310 (pictured) which is a widescreen with full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution, as well as DVI/VGA/HDMI inputs plus a 50,000:1 contrast ratio with a price point of $229.

EVGA InterView Dual Monitor System
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Displays, Peripherals
Some of you probably work with two monitor screens, but what if you simply bought one monitor that was two monitors? I suppose this was the inspiration for EVGA’s InterView, which has two monitors that can swivel. (You can see from the photo that one is turned 180 degrees.)
Each one has a resolution of 1440x900, and are 17-inch at the diagonal. The stand itself has 4 USB ports, a built-in webcam, as well as an input for a microphone. There is also a DMS video connection.
Like it? So do I. Be prepared to pay a pretty penny’s worth of $649 for it, though.

Apple introduces LED Cinema Display: 24-inch, $899
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, PC / Laptop, Peripherals

After many years of remaining stagnant, Apple finally gave their Cinema Display line a nice redesign. The new 24” LED Cinema Display looks similar to what you’d find in an iMac. Aluminum casing, black bezel along the front, LED backlit, built-in MagSafe connector, and a built-in iSight camera with microphone. That last one is something we’ve been waiting for, for far too long. Unfortunately, not everything is all fun and games with the new Cinema Display, as it appears that - at least for the time being - these new Cinema Displays are only compatible with the new MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air that were announced today, which all incorporate the DisplayPort. There is currently no way to connect a Mac Pro, iMac, or older notebook to one of these. Let’s hope this gets remedied quickly.
You can pick up the new 24-inch LED Cinema Display in November for $899.
