an "ergonomic" monitor. Maybe a keyboard or mouse...but a monitor?? I understand the tilt and height adjustment...but ergonomic?? Marketing at its finest. LMAO

“With this line, government, education and corporate customers now have an affordable solution for displaying media.”

"...and $319 for the VG2027wm."

A 20" for $319??? Really affordable.

Lowers brightness to 60%, wohoo Maybe it has some more clever stuff, but I bet that's part of it.

Oh, my bad I read that wrong.

The 20" and 22" are only differentiated by the model number. The 24" is slightly different.

They look goon n all, but where is pivot??

I refuse to exchange my 22" hp with pivot and i can even set the screen horizontally, for something with a plain fixed stand...

Seems my only choice would be an 24" HP of the same model, but im really interested on a 16/9 screen instead of 16/10

Woo, awesome. $300+ for cheap-ass TN panels in 16:9 instead of 16:10.

First one has a matte base. Other two have a sort of low gloss sheen and this sort of "space" at the bottom of the support "beam" itself.
