Syntax Olevia LT26HVE 26-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV
WAY TO GO SYNTAX!!!!!
Did quite a bit of research on LCD and Plasma TVs.  Wanted to be able to use as a computer monitor also.  Believe me, anyone into electronics and specs and having half normal intelligence on using settings can get this TV to work beautifully!!!  Seeing the prices on other LCDs, plasmas and \\"rear projection\\" TVs, a bit of advise - save your money and be confident in purchasing this \\"very\\" reasonably priced Syntax Olevia.  Yes, the company has only been in business for a couple of years, but doing research, they are now the 3rd highest rated in LCDs. Reviews in many electronics magazines recommend highly.  Pretty good for a new company!  As for using for a monitor - only a 6 ft. cable comes with the set.  Make sure you spend the extra money and invest into a high-end cable, e.g. the Belkin Pro Series High Integrity VGA/SVGA replacement monitor cable.  Try not to use an extension - go for a m/m replacement cable.  Most stores, e.g. Staples, etc. do not know lower end cables are not recommended for monitors larger then 17-19\\". This High Integrity is used for larger TV/Monitors - over 17-19\\".    As for adding speakers, etc., again - use high-end cables!  Regarding remote - programmed my cable remote to run the system.  Only need Syntax remote to adjust settings.  Can program ANY remote to control this LCD.  Am debating whether to purchase another, maybe larger, before pricing goes up.  Syntax knows they have a GOOD PRODUCT.  You won't be sorry.  Only reason so reasonably priced is to get their product out there to show what they've got.  Good strategy!  Another bit of info - worked with Bose since their inception.  If you respect the Bose systems, take the advise from someone who's worked with electronics engineers since the 1960's.  Nice product Syntax!!!!!!!!!
