Pros:

Two HDMI ports, Good color and viewing angle performance, Razor-thin profile.
Backlit LED makes the picture pop out and look sharp regardless of most viewing angles, Ultra slim design fits nicely onto desks or dressers without taking up a good deal of space, 2 HDMI ports make this unit good as a multimedia center for both computers...

Cons:

Tilt only stand, Weak speakers, No USB ports.
Since controls are attached to base, mounting the screen is not an option, Onboard speakers are tinny and aren't really worth the addition, HDMI ports and 3.5 mm jacks only exclude any opticalbased audio solutions
