Amazon.com Product Description
The 20-inch Philips 20PF5120 LCD TV is a great addition to a small room, such as your kitchen, or for cosily watching movies in your bedroom. It can also double as a PC monitor with its VGA video input. It has a built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner for standard television broadcasts. It features Philips' Crystal Clear III video processing, which combines a whole range of enhancements to provide a better picture, including a dynamic contrast, blue stretch and green enhancement for the most natural looking colors. This set includes a tabletop stand, but it's also wall-mountable with optional kit (VESA compatible).

The 20PF5120 has a 640 x 480-pixel resolution, 160-degree horizontal and 120-degree vertical viewing angles, 16 ms (millisecond) response time, a 450 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating, and a 500:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) It has three screen format adjustment options: 4:3, 16:9 compressed, and 4:3 expand.

The 3D comb filter separates brightness and color signals better in 3D domain to eliminate cross-color, cross-luminance and dot-crawl distortion. It performs field-by-field comparisons of the television image to accurately separate the color from the black-and-white information and remove both horizontally and vertically hanging dots, as well as dot crawl, resulting in a razor sharp image.

This TV has two built-in stereo speakers that produce 5 watts per channel (for 10 watts of total power). Philips' Incredible Surround audio technology dramatically magnifies the sound field to immerse you in the audio. Using state-of-the-art electronic phase shifting, Incredible Surround mixes sounds from left and right in such a way that it expands the virtual distance between the two speakers. This wider spread greatly enhances the stereo effect and creates a more natural sound dimension--without the use of additional speakers.

It includes a DVI-D input for uncompressed digital RGB connection from source to screen. By eliminating the conversion of the digital signal to analog, it delivers an unblemished image. Thanks to the non-degraded signal, you get less flicker and a clearer picture. The DVI input is fully backward compatible with HDMI sources, and also uses HDCP copy protection. It also includes the following connections:

Composite AV (RCA) In: 1
S-Video In: 1
Component Video In (Y PB PR): 2
DVI-D In: 1
RF In: 1
VGA PC input: 1
PC Audio In: 1

ThinkPad - BMW of laptop computer. ThinkPad T60 - the Ultimate Business Machine.......2006-06-04

I bought the ThinkPad T60 (2623D5U) to replace my old IBM iSeries, an entry-level ThinkPad which is 5 years old but still works great. I did my research before the purchase and found that ThinkPad is still the most attractive laptop out there. My only concern is whether the new ThinkPad will be as good as the old one, since Lenovo acquired the IBM ThinkPad business last year. After testing my new T60 for two weeks, my concerns are all gone. In fact, I am so satisfied with my new ThinkPad that I decide to write my first product review ever.

THINKPAD T60 FEATURES

Core Duo chipset and superior configuration options

Sturdy, classic design: Unlike other laptops with a modular design, ThinkPad is tightly put together. Rock solid!

A deep supply of connectivity: includes Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11a/b/g wireless, Bluetooth, 56Kbps modem, and optional Wireless Broadband Access. I have to mention that when you shop for other laptops, like Dell, you usually have to pay extra for these features.

FEATURES THAT ARE EXCLUSIVE TO THINKPAD

Fast Recovery system: Built in a hidden partition of the hard drive, allows easy and fast system recovery even when you cannot enter the Windows system

Fingerprint Security System: Only ThinkPad has a built-in fingerprint scanner. With a wipe of your fingertips, you can log into your computer via an Embedded Security System.

Shock-mounted hard drive: This hard drive is protected by an air-bag like security mount and constantly monitored by the Active Protective System. In case of shock or vibration, this system will suspend the hard drive to prevent any damage to it.

ThinkVantage: The blue ThinkVantage button summons Lenovo's excellent system support and help utility - ThinkVantage Productivity Center

Think Keyboard Light: An LED light illuminate the keyboard when you type in darkness. I find it extremely helpful. Another brilliant, thoughtful design from ThinkPad.

TrackPoint Device: In addition to a touchpad, ThinkPad still offers its classical TrackPoint device with two sets of mouse buttons, which I found more convenient than other pointing devices.

Sturdy steel hinges: Not just cool-looking, they are the reinforced joint connecting the display with the rest of the machine

FEATURES THAT LENOVO DIDN'T MENTION ABOUT THINKPAD

I think Lenovo is too modest in marketing the ThinkPad. They even didn't mention the following features of a ThinkPad T60 on their website.

Built-in microphone: great for Net Meeting
Infrared interface: useful for exchange information with your other infrared devices
Multi burner: the DVD burner (selected models) is capable to burn double-layer DVDs. Great for DVD copying or system backup.

OTHER POSITIVE COMMENTS

Quiet: The sound of the hard drive is surprisingly low - I barely hear any noise during start up. ThinkPad did a great job dissipating heat with two louvers. You rarely hear the sound of the internal fan. I have tested many laptops. ThinkPad is the quietest.

UltraConnect antenna: Built into the display cover for optimal signal reception. This antenna provides me reliable wireless connection even when the signal is weak (probably from my remote neighbors).

Keyboard: Lenovo inherited the excellent keyboard design from IBM. ThinkPad still has the best keyboard out there.

Long battery life: My standard 6-cell Li-Ion battery lasts about 3.5 hours under peak performance condition. You can expand the battery life to about 6 hours by purchasing the optional 9-cell battery

Customer Service: Very responsive, friendly customer service provided by IBM in partnership with Lenovo.

SOME NEGATIVE COMMENTS

Cover material: Still magnesium as old ThinkPad. I had expected the ThinkPad T60 to have Titanium surface as in some ThinkPad Z Series

Price: Some people say that ThinkPad is the most expensive laptop within the class, although I disagree. When I loaded the Dell Latitude to the same configuration as my ThinkPad T60, Dell is only about $100 cheaper. But you won't get those ThinkPad exclusive features anywhere else. In that sense, ThinkPad is well worth the price.

ThinkPad - BMW of laptop computer.
ThinkPad T60 - the Ultimate Business Machine
