Review summary	This high-end LCD gets an A for design, features, and adjustability, but its image quality falls a smidge short for the price.	This glass-covered LCD will look good in your office, but it's less adjustable and more expensive than competing 19-inch LCDs.	HP's L2035 delivers good image quality and video connectivity in a stylish, highly adjustable, moderately priced package.	The SyncMaster 173P delivers above-average image quality in a handsome package for style-minded graphics pros.	Sony's pricey, stylish SDM-HX73 offers multimedia performance, but its image quality is insufficient for advanced graphics applications.	BenQ's swank FP783 17-inch LCD will give your work space a dose of high style, although its image quality is less attractive.
