This is the most beautiful and sexy looking monitor I have ever owned. It is super thin, super bright, super pleasing to the eyes and very light-weight! The set up was an absolute no-brainer (you do not need the poorly written user manual). The touch sensitive buttons are great but a little too sensitive at first until you figure out how to work with it. I use it as a stand-alone monitor hooked up to a DVD/CD player and my hi-fi receiver. the video is with an HDMI cable and the audio goes straight from the DVD player to the Receiver. I think the circular stand is just perfect. It not only looks great, but works quite well and is adequately stable. I put a wadd of museum putty under the stand for additional stability and it worked great! This is a tremendously good deal for a monitor in this price range - looks and performance. Buy it!!!
