Worked great then DEAD (and the fix)
Pros
Good price, nice bright picture. Easy repair when it does fail.
Cons
HP used cheap capacitors that fail quickly.
Recommended it?
No
When new, it seemed like a good LCD monitor for the price. I don't use the speakers so I can't comment on them. However after little use for 1 1/2 years, it wouldn't power on. No power light - nothing. I suspected bad capacitors, I have had to replace many over the last few years. I was getting ready to open it up but did a quick search first. I found a site with excellent info. Epinions won't allow a link to an outside site so do a search for:

If you are handy with a soldering iron, it's a simple matter of replacing 3 capacitors in the power supply. I repaired mine for about $6 and am using it right now.
