Design And Finish
The PM17T-S is a very stylish device, with a breathtaking finish, which has nothing to fear from the big players in the PC display arena. In the tradition of a portable PC manufacturer, the materials used are of excellent quality, the stand (in solid metal) is incredibly stable. The entire product radiates quality.
Ergonomics
Ergonomically, the PM17T-S is adequate, nothing more. The OSD is easy to use but we were disappointed with the limited range of inclination adjustment: we've seen better.
Equipment
With double VGA/DVI connections, an audio socket and two loudspeakers, the PM17T-S is fairly average. Despite all that, there's the usual external power supply and the loudspeakers are useless. Note that the audio input is cinch type and not mini-jack. The cables provided are all armored.
