Query: I like it.

The red gun completely died in my old-fashioned CRT about a week and a half before Christmas. Because of Christmas, I found it very difficult to find anything wide screen in local stores over 19" in stock with a decent resolution. Being pleased with a smaller HP monitor I bought for my parents last year, I bought this one directly from HP without seeing it in person. I was disappointed at first. I switched from VGA to DVI (there wasn't a dvi cable in the box, I had to steal one from work). It was a little better but still disappointing. My video card couldn't be set to display the optimum resolution that HP recommends for this monitor. I ran Microsoft Windows Update and found a monitor driver that allowed my old Nvidia video card to display the optimum resolution -- it improved greatly and am now pleased that I didn't throw my money away. Unforunately I can't compare it with the f2105 or any other similar sized monitor at this price point so I am limiting my review to 4 stars.
