    The Good: Good image quality; highly adjustable; composite and S-Video inputs; picture-in-picture; all cables included.

    The Bad: Expensive; no cable-feed system.

    The Bottom Line: Planar's pricey PX212M delivers solid image quality and a useful array of multimedia and connectivity options to users who need a large display.
