Reviews of the Dell Crystal - 22 inch (wide-screen)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Aesthetically pleasing design; built-in speakers; great performance, especially in color reproduction; elegant and practical onscreen display.
The Bad: Sky-high price puts it out of reach for most of us; lack of connection options; nonadjustable screen height.
The Bottom Line: For boardrooms and public spaces in need of a LCD conversation piece, the Dell Crystal might find a home. For those not operating on a bloated corporate budget, however, there are plenty of other 22-inch LCDs that cost a fraction of the cost.
