As a 1440 x 900 resolution display, the L197w is best suited for editing documents, surfing the web and other multitasking scenarios. The panel’s 16:10 aspect ratio is a compromise between a traditional 5:4 monitor and full 16:9 widescreen displays. Both VGA and DVI (with HDCP) inputs are supported for added compatibility. The L197w meets both Energy Star and EPEAT Gold rating requirements, meaning this monitor consumes less power than competing products at only 22 watts. Additional features include an integrated tilt stand, a Kensington lock slot and 100mm VESA mounting holes.
