Product Description
Free up desk space by upgrading to the streamlined Acer AL1917 LCD. It's a fraction of the size of a CRT, and the speakers are built in.
Amazon.com Product Description
You'll recover more of your desk surface by replacing that old CRT monitor and clunky speakers with this ultrathin LCD monitor with built-in speakers. Gamers and movie lovers will enjoy the high-quality color and rapid response time. It features a SXGA (1280 x 1024) native pixel resolution and both a standard, VGA-style D-sub connector for plugging into your computer's graphics card and a DVI-D connector for uncompressed digital images. pThe AL1917CBMD's fast response time promises flicker-free gaming and video playback. Response time is the interval an LCD screen takes to from its darkest color to its lightest color and back again, measured in milliseconds (ms). This screen's response time is 5 ms, which is at the faster and better end of the spectrum. This screen is likely to display cleaner, sharper images during high-action scenes and with fewer image artifacts than other screens in its class. Also, the AL1917CBMD is rated with a respectable 700:1 contrast ratio, which represents the difference in luminosity between its brightest and darkest pixels. The screen's brightness is measured at 300 candelas per square meter (cd/m ), which relatively bright compared to other LCD monitors./p

 Great Value, Easy to Set up April 9, 2008

This is my second Acer LCD (first one is now 6 months old) and both are working great. I needed a 4:3 aspect LCD and searched high and low - widescreens are taking over the market but document review is just plain silly on a widescreen. br / br /Easy to Use: I unpacked the monitor and base, snapped the base onto the monitor ('click'). I opened 2 of the three cords (DVI is included but I don't need it), plugged it into my laptop dock and power outlet, then turned it on. the light on the monitor goes from dark to green. I hit Fn F7 on my laptop, and the display came on. And that's about it. I never installed the driver since most computers already have what's required. br / br /Good quality: Colors are good, refresh rate is high enough to play games (although I don't), and the casing (which is black, not silver) is discrete. br / br /Only con: The monitor can tilt towards and away from you, but can't be adjusted upward/downward. If you need that type of flexibility and don't want to use a phonebook/stand to prop it up, look again.
Acer AL1917CBMD 19" Flat Panel Display February 22, 2008

I was looking for a reasonable price on an acceptable replacement monitor for my backup desk computer, and the description of the Acer AL1917 seemed to fit the bill, plus Amazon's shipping rate to Hawaii was only half what others were asking. The monitor was very well packaged, had all the necessary cables, I plugged it in right out of the box and it was up and running. Image quality is excellent, plenty of screen area and high resolution for the desk work I do (don't do gaming so can't say about that), small footprint on the desk, it's exactly what I wanted.

Five months into my AL1917 warranty period the monitor failed. After spending much time with tech support, I was assigned an authorization # and told to ship (at my own expense) the monitor to Temple, TX for repair, and I should expect it to remain there 4 or 5 days. The monitor arrived back at my home 21 days later. The original problem was repaired but the built-in speakers no longer worked. Tech support tried to detect a cause with no result. It was suggested I buy a speaker or ship the monitor back to Temple (at my own expense). I told the tech that Acer personel had disabled the speakers and Acer should pay shipping. He said they don't do it that way. I suggested the problem could be solved quickly and cheaply by his sending me an external speaker. He said they don't do that. He also added that if he had speakers in stock, identical to those that were not working, he would ship them to me, but he had none. I asked if they would be shipped once available. He said I would have to call back. I asked if guidance would be given for installation if the speakers were ever provided. He said they don't do that. During one call, I asked to speak with a supervisor and was place on hold for 15 minutes before hanging up the phone. Needless to say, I've owned my last Acer product. Do a little checking on the company's responsiveness to complaints before making your purchase decision.

When my 22" CRT went on the blink 2 months ago, it finally gave me the opportunity to replace it with a flat panel monitor on my main computer. I did extensive research before deciding to purchase the Acer AL1917CBMD 19". My expectations were high, but tempered by the fact that I only paid a little over $200. With that in mind, here are my conclusions. Among the positive features are: br / br /-aesthetically pleasant looking monitor br /-easy set up and configuration br /-clear picture with high resolution br /-contrast near CRT level br /-excellent flicker-free video display br / br /I am hard pressed to find any negative features. But it may bear noting that I am unable comment on its durability at this time. I can say, however, that I have used this monitor intermittently for 2 months displaying mostly video and have had no issues at all. You should note, however, this is not a wide-screen monitor. So if you watch a lot of DVDs on your computer in wide screen-mode, this may not be the monitor for you. br / br /Bottom line: for this price, there simply is no other monitor with these features.
