HP 2709m
$499.00
Released July, 2009
The Pros:Large 27" screen size. Full 1080p resolution. HDMI connectivity.
The Cons:16:9 aspect ratio means you lose 200 vertical pixels, fine for media but poorer for everything else (surfing the net, productivity software). Large glossy bezel attracts fingerprints. Cheap stand - wobbly, no height adjustment or portrait mode.
The 2709m is a high-end computer monitor from HP. Its most important feature is its 27" diagonal size, much larger than most consumer monitor offerings. The 2709m's size, combined with its 1080p resolution, enables two windows to be displayed at the same time and provides obvious benefits for movies and games.
