True, but it is certainly more comforting to see it in writing.
Also, when a unit is so much cheaper than competing units, one has to
wonder why, and sometimes the "why" is a surprise like no HDCP. When
a specific mention is missing I want to check, just cynical I guess.
The only criticism I could make of the published specs on that
monitor is that I'd like to see a little more brightness, but the
stated spec is adequate.
But I'd suggest that anyone thinking of buying any sort of monitor by
mail-order try and find a local store that's selling the same unit,
always nice to "see for one's self" things like image quality, which
have subjective qualities that go beyond the specs.
