You need to check whether your graphics card support the native resolution of the LCD in question. If you try to use your LCD at lower than native res, you won't get the sharpness or depth in your display. Ans, you can't go higher than the native res.Also, basically AL2223 & AL2216 are the same except for 800:1 & 700:1 contrast; AL2223 is the office line version of Acer's value line AL2216.Hope this helpsWaqas

Some monitors now have a USB hub built in so you don't have to buy an additional one.

The only information that I could find is that the AL2223Wd is silver (instead of black) and has a contrast ratio of 800:1 instead of 700:1. Both have the same resolution, screen size, and response time. Acer's web site does not even have information, that I could find, on the AL2223Wd.Seeing as the amazon reviews for both products are stellar, I am thinking that both of these are good products. Anyone have additional information?- Mike

Sorry, another dumb question: How do you check if your graphics card can support the native resolution of the monitor? I have a Dell with NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200.

So which contrast is better? 800:1 or 700:1? What is contrast exactly referring to?

I have the same question. My guess is the 2223 is just a later (better?) version of the same basic monitor

From what I read on CNET, the AL2216 does not have speakers built in to it and the AL2223 does. Aside from that, there are no big differences to my knowledge. I hope that helps.

Yeah, Amazon's got this info really messed up...I can't figure out what the difference is between this model and one $40 cheaper, as apparently they're both Atoms with 2GB and 64GB storage. The price difference would make sense if one of them had more storage (or SOMETHING), but I can't figure out what the difference is.

If you are looking for a better quality budget tablet and are willing to pay a bit more. I also purchased the "Acer Iconia 8In A1-810-L481" ..... It is "Manufacturer Refurbished" but it looks and works "LIKE NEW" .... I would never be able to tell the difference. the prices are starting at $114- $146, make sure it is the "NEW Manufactures Refurb" and not the "USED" (Previously owned) that you purchase. Also "LePan" and "Lenovo" brands are good budget tablets. Hope this helps!!

Jim, I'm not very computer savvy but for an almost fifty-seven year old woman the Acer Aspire is lovely. I'm not an Apple person but it seems comparable to my friends' Macbook. I did much research before buying my Acer and read good things about it. Hope this helps a bit

There's a lot of discussion about the advantages of the old version in the Amazon user reviews of both versions. I bought the (more expensive) old version and am happy with it, but never tried the newer one for comparison.

I actually switched from the 226bw to the w2207. I like the HP better because of the vivid colors and the swivel monitor. Also has additional usb ports on side and better menu layout and customization. Overall quality is the same, but the HP has more to offer.

Ok so not being that savvy (and just starting my search), which one is better in your opinion? What are the options that matter most? Thanks

My advice is to not bother with the Acer. Mine was junk and a waste of money. Buy a Samsung device instead.

Thank you R.R. That was my conclusion a couple of months ago when considering the S350 or the 1500 but then I read quite a few reviews that said they were having no issues with the 1500 and customer service was great. I've decided on the Panny for the reasons you detailed and that the Samsung needs to be added to and upgraded to be comparable to the Panny so why bother for a few dollars savings. I've ordered the 35K and look forward to enjoying it.....Thanks again!!

By your question I can't tell what the 'cheaper one listed by you at this link' actually is...there is no link to it...just a link to Amazon. If you could let me know what that other one was I might be able to explain what differences there are. With that in mind...I bought this one because of the durability of this particular unit. I did some research and this one had a much lower failure rate and is supposed to last much longer than most of the others.

I don't know the difference between the two--only that one is a newer model than the other. You should research the model numbers.

I have the Acer C7. I chose it over the Samsung for a few reasons: I saved $50 by purchasing the Acer and had read reviews that the Acer had a brighter, truer display. The Samsung will probably boot up a few seconds faster than the Acer because of Samsung's 16 GB SSD. The Acer has more horsepower processor wise. Another reason to consider the Acer is because you can add Ubuntu Linux.For me, purchasing a Chromebook was an experiment to see if 100% (or close to it) cloud computing was for me and this was the cheapest way to find out.

For those of you interested in the successor model, the Acer Aspire One AO756 with Celeron processor has the same slide-forward, easy-off bottom panel for acces to RAM and hard drive for easy RAM upgrade and HD to SSD conversion. I just purchased the 2gb RAM, 320FB HD edition for $279 from Best Buy and added a second 2gb RAM module - lo and behold I discovered the mobo has 2 RAM slots! Didn't try going beyond 4 Gb though

I'm a med student myself, actually already an MD here in my country, but plan in taking my step 1 this june... anyways, I have to recomend ASUS, the laptop has 5 stars build quality as well as performance! I actually bought the ASUS UL80vt, and fits perfectly to my lifestyle, and just so you know, that 12 hr battery thing is for real!!! you should get the ul80vt instead, its quite faster and better at multitasking than the ul30A-x5 since it has turboboos technology, also the screen is 14.1 and comes with DVD drive, which you may not use as much, but I prefer to have it than not.... BTW, go with the Silver model, it looks nicer!!! happy shopping!, let me know what you went for!
