SAMSUNG SYNCMASTER 173MW INTRODUCTION

As I have stated time and time again, if you are even considering a LCD monitor for your next purchase, by all means go for it, you won't be sorry. With crisp vibrant colors and second to none contrast, LCD monitors are easy on the eyes and the pocket book with their low power consumption and non existent radiation emission. I myself have been an LCD lover for the past two years and seeing that I spend a lot of time in front of the screen, my eyes are thanking me that I haven't settled for the CRT alternative.

Today I will reviewing a 17 inch widescreen version of Samsung's multifunction Syncmaster LCD monitor product line. With all the features that are packed into the standard aspect multifunction monitors, it allows the user to view supported DVDs in their full widescreen aspect ratio.

Almost a year ago I had the joy of reviewing the Samsung SyncMaster 172W Widescreen Standard LCD monitor (Review HERE) and enjoyed it thoroughly.

Consider the 173MW a multifunction playpen with a few extra toys tossed in for even more enjoyment.
