- Samsung SyncMaster 305T LCD Monitor
- There are only a handful of vendors--Apple, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Gateway, and Samsung--that offer 30-inch LCD monitors at the moment, so your choices are limited if you're in the market for an extra large LCD. The Samsung SyncMaster 305T is a good place to start. It lists for $1,329 but...

- Dell Crystal - 22 inch (wide-screen)
- Priced at $1,199, this 22-inch LCD is clearly not aimed at the general consumer. For the money, you could pick up four SP2208WFP Editors' Choice award winning 22-inch Dell LCDs. Aside from the price, there's a lot to like about the Crystal, but even a perfectly outfitted 22-inch would...

- Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP
- The Gateway FHD2400 may be cheaper, but the Dell UltraSharp 2408WPF display is the better value of the two 24-inch LCD monitors. It performed outstandingly in our labs-based DisplayMate tests, delivering quite possibly the best image we've seen for DVD playback. The 2408WPF packs all of its stellar...

- HDMI survival guide for home theater
- There's a lot of money to be made in the HDMI cabling and switch aftermarket and unfortunately that means a lot of consumers are getting tricked in to paying outrageous prices. I've spent quite a bit of time helping my friends set up their home theaters recently and I thought...

- LG Flatron L206WU
- The LG L206WU is a fairly ordinary-looking 20-inch wide-screen LCD with an unusual feature: a DisplayLink video chip that lets you connect it to your PC via USB 2.0. This ability makes the L206WU highly convenient as a second display and you can daisy chain up to six via USB....

- Everything you've read about Vista DRM is wrong (Part 3)
- This is the final installment in my series debunking Peter Gutmann's widely read and undeservedly cited paper on Vista content protection. (If you missed Part 1 and Part 2, go read them before you dive into this conclusion.) Today, I want to deal head-on with one of the most...

- Envision G918W1
- You'll find Envision's 19-inch wide-screen G918W1 LCD for sale only at Best Buy, generally around $219. At this price, we don't think it's worth it. In our tests, we found its image quality unimpressive and its display plagued by an irritating design quirk. It is HDCP compliant, however, and does...

- Boutique computer manufacturer Blueado focuses on Media Centers, producing several models aimed at high-end home-theater customers. Most of its systems are large, rack-style boxes, but the $1,500 Blueado Mini m5e is a small-form-factor SFF PC that's roughly the size of two Mac Minis stacked end to end. If you're looking...

- The war for the living room PC has begun.

- The $2,000 Dell UltraSharp 3008WFP is a beautiful-looking display with a ton of features. Because of its 117 percent NTSC color gamut, however, we encountered many more color problems than we expected during DVD and Blu-ray playback. Be prepared to do a lot of color tweaking if you plan to...

- The Acer P241w can be found for as cheap as $380--a very fair price for a 24-inch LCD--and boasts a unique look and very bright image. Of the five 24-inch displays we've reviewed this year, we'd rank it fourth, but it still does some things better than its higher ranked...
