| SharryS's Full Review: AOC 7 VLra-Lam/O CRT Monitor |
We received the AOC Spectrum Series 7 VLrA Monitor as part of our computer package and absolutely love it. With three simple buttons you set up your whole monitor. I ask you, "How much easier can it get"?
Features
Supports Resolution up to 1280 x 1024
17 Inch Screen - The size is great, not to big but not small so you find yourself squinting to see the screen.
Three Button Monitor
The far right button is the Power Button.
The middle is a Shuttle Knob used to control the monitor functions which include contrast, brightness, horizontal center, horizontal size, vertical center, vertical size, zoom, pincushion, trapezoid, pin-balance, parallelogram, rotation, color temperature, user color, degauss, moire reduce, recall and exit. If all this language sounds foreign to you like it does me the instruction booklet gives a detailed description of what exactly each of those functions do. You rotate to switch functions or adjust settings. Press to select or execute a function.
The far left button is an OSD Key used to activate the OSD window or to exit the OSD window and save the settings
Power Indicator Light - when green it is in power on mode and when its orange it is in stand-by, suspend or off mode.
Swivel Base - Great for easy positioning of the monitor.
Green Monitor - The monitor has a power saving function that works only if your PC is a green PC and is similar to a screen saver, except that your monitor will turn off instead of activating a screen saver.
Final Thoughts
We have had this monitor for a little over one year and have had no problems with it. The instruction manual gives very detailed instructions and trouble shooting. I have never had to use the technical support so I can't comment on that. I would highly recommend this monitor to anyone.
