Works great... even with Linux (Slackware 10.1)
(5 out of 5) by Y. Miles on Apr 29, 2006 (Millington, NJ United States)This monitor worked great right out of the box. Simply connect the cables and off you go. I have it interfaced through a KVM switch with my Slackware 10.1 and a second PC (HP m7470n). I was expecting issues but so far everything is running flawlessly! Great buy!

COOL VIEW
(5 out of 5) by MARK 118 on Aug 31, 2006 (NY) THE HP 1905 IS A GREAT MONITOR, IT WORKED FLAWLESSLY OUT OF THE BOX. I RECCOMEND THAT YOU GET A DVI CABLE AND HOOK IT UP THROUGH THE DIGITAL INPUT. TRUE HDTV , DEEP RICH COLORS. I REPLACED MY DELL WITH THIS MONITOR , ITS WORTH THE MONEY.

Works with Linux and VMWare and.....
(5 out of 5) by Preston K. Crawford on Aug 24, 2006 (Beaverton, Oregon United States)Wow am I impressed. I bought this tonight because I needed a monitor that would be able to ably display a large IDE window to get some work done at work. I was hoping to setup an enviornment where using VMWare I could VPN in using virtual Windows XP (I run Red Hat Linux with VMWare on top of it when I need Windows) and do some work. To my huge surprise the following things worked immediately.
- The monitor worked perfectly with Linux.
- The monitor allowed me to run VMWare in full screen mode for Windows, meaning it was like having a 19" monitor running Windows on Linux
The point of all that detail? I've run Linux with VMWare and Windows for years. Years. And my old NEC monitor could never handle going full screen. So when I would use Terminal Services to connect to work I had to do so at 800x600. Ugh.
But this monitor worked great at 1280 x 1024. Awesome. Plus it looks beautiful. I'm so impressed. I got it home and got 3 hours of work done as if I were sitting in my office. I'm very happy with this monitor and it's ability to handle all kinds of unusual circumstances that I threw at it.

GREAT
(5 out of 5) by K. Gorrell on Jun 15, 2006 (NJ)I was quite hesitant when i read reviews online at circuitcity.com but I brought it was a 3 yrs protection. So I figured if it did act up I can always bring it back.
I have had it for over a year now and it works great. My only concern is my wire...it appears to make my screen go on and off if someone touches it. I dont know if its a short or what but I will take it back before my protection expires.
Everything else is great....nice color and I love the adjustments that you can make...
