First reaction, after setting it up. was.. Holy!!!! And we started giggling. I had to put on my cheaters to read it. This thing is BIG, BOLD and BEAUTIFUL.
I am not the most tech savvy person, but I was able to easily set this up and begin using it. I needed something that could function as a second monitor and felt that having the option to use this as a TV would be helpful in my smaller living space. For the cost, the quality is great and it isn't an eyesore. I care about the picture being good, but I'm not some super sensitive techie with major expectations, either. This product is easy to use, easy to set up, good quality and a fair price point.
