NEC NEW LCDS

NEC seems to want to go head to head with its contemporaries in the world of electronics business. After Samsung has unveiled what they claim to be the most colorful LCD around, NEC has answered back with two new LCDs - the MultiSync LCD1990FX and LCD1990FXp displays. Unlike the Samsung variant whose main selling point is its colorful LCD, these two boasts the world's thinnest side bezel at just under 7-mm thick - 42% thinner than the company's current ultra-thin-bezels. Can't beat Samsung in color, beat them somewhere else.

Aside from being thin, both have 150-mm height-adjustable stands, pivot for either portrait or landscape mode, and contain ultra-thin borders around the screen to save space, it also claims to provide the widest viewing angle - 178 degrees - which you can use in audience-filled trading room floors and offices when multiple users are situated around one display.

They also claim to be energy advocates - both displays deliver Intelligent Power Management (IPM), which draws just 40 watts during use, and AmbiBright technology, which automatically adjusts the display backlight depending on the brightness of ambient lighting conditions. Too bad that they can't beat the enemy from South Korea in the price category.

The NEC MultiSync LCD1990FXp/ LCD1990FX / measures 392.2 (W) x 408.9 ~ 558.9 (H) x 247.3 (D) mm,weighs approximately 8.0kg with stand. Model LCD1990FXp is available from July31st for 102,900 Japanese Yen or roughly $880 - more than double the price of the Samsung SyncMaster CX930B which will go for $430.
