Shuttle XP 17 LCD review ?

Hi.
Shuttle is providing for his Small Form Factor Cases PC, an accessory, that can be also carried in a separate bag, as it is already the case for the XPC SFF Case PC.
This accessory is a 17 inches LCD flat panel.
I would like THG to make an independant review about it, because I dont know its specs, and if it is good for Office/Internet/Photoshop/Games.
Please do something for me.
In the mean time, Shuttle is promoting a short non technical at all review from the Inquirer.
See below to read this review.
It seems good, but it is not as technical as at THG, so please do review this LCD, and compare it to the Samsung Syncmaster 152 T 15 inches from December 2003.
Thanks a lot.

The XP17 is application perfect

The Inquirer, a hard-hitting IT news and reviews website, has taken a look at the first flat panel display designed to match the style, performance and portability of the XPC, the Shuttle XP17. Testing this display under a full range of applications, from gaming to productivity, The Inquirer recommends this picture-perfect flat panel display for anyone with a XPC.

"Its design is irresistible … its picture quality is perfect," gushed reviewer Fuad Abazovic. "I like it … you get a lot of good stuff for the money."


Application perfect — Office. "[F]or working with office applications you won't need to adjust at all," said Fuad about the XP17's excellent autotuning feature. "In Word you will be able to zoom to 200 percent at 1280x1024 and still be able to see crystal clear letters … very pleasing to see that kind of sharpness."

Application perfect — Gaming. "My primary concern about this display was how it is going to handle games,” questioned Fuad. “I discovered that games like Doom 3 and some other titles I run at it haven’t got any problems. You cannot tell the real difference from CRT display and you won't miss it."


Application perfect — Web layout. "You can also rotate this display 90 degrees counter clockwise and have an A4 kind of display and this looks really cool." In portrait view, the XP17 is ideal for web layout and content editors that benefit from being able to see the full picture at full resolution.

The XP17 is the ideal display for every application; office, web, gaming. Moreover, its elegant design and tough build quality fill the hole that has been missing in the display market.


"I like it" — Fuad Abazovic
