686395 2008-07-08 02:39:00 My current (yuk!) HP w19E monitor has met with some unfortunate water damage (not deliberate!), so Mr Insurance is about to cough for a new one .

I'm leaning towards a Viewsonic or LG, but I'm looking for a monitor that has height adjustment (as well as tilt) . The current HP has neither and has a crappy bright/dead pixel warranty too!

Most of the product specs I've looked at don't actually say whether they're height adjustable (let alone waterproof! :D), so I was wondering whether anyone here mght point me in the right direction with some model numbers . . .

19 or 20 inch - don't really care (not sure yet whether the insurance company will want to specify); intended use is mixed - browsing, home office work, a bit of gaming, watching DVDs etc .

Anything with a 5ms or less response time will be more than adequate I would think, so long as it has a good contrast ratio . . .

686399 2008-07-08 05:36:00 Bought a Philips 190B because of the height adjustment.Goes well. Neil McC (178)
686400 2008-07-08 08:14:00 I love the apple 20" wide, but I'm flexible (and hesitant to spen 1200 on a monitor). steven25 (13136)
686401 2008-07-08 08:54:00 I have a Samsung SyncMaster 940B - height adjustable, good colour. I print photos for club competitions and the automatic colour adjustment gives me accurate (that is, the colour on the screen almost matches Photoshop output when Photoshop manages colour) output. :clap

So - I'm happy - for the moment!
