I purcahsed this Television/Monitor for use while deployed to Iraq. I have AFN television, my personal Laptop, and a PSP hooked up to the monitor. It works very well and has a phenominal picture. I am a professional photographer and I edit my pictures on this screen. The clarity and vivid color make the process very easy. The conditions in Iraq are terrible for a TV/Monitor but this one endures very well. It is constantly covered in extremely find sand, tt is exposed to regular power outages and surges, and it gets left on for very long periods of time. It does far better than most of the brand name flat panel TVs the Army purchases for use. I am anxious to see how it survives the trip home. (I purchased a pelican case to protect it during shipping home, although it shipped here in the cardboard box from the retailer.) There are 6 different inputs (including 1-HDMI) and it is very simple to switch from one to another. It has a very intuitive program guide (AFN does not broadcast a program guide, and yet the TV can ID many programs). I don't understand complaints about the speakers at all. They're not the greatest, but for a TV of this size, they're dang good. I saw the warning about hooking both S-video and component up, so I have not done that. The remote is small and simple...which for me is a plus! I don't need all of the complicated buttons that don't do anything. It has all the functions I need. All in all, this is a very good product and well worth the price. A Great Value.

I have had this LCD TV for 2 years without any major issues.

1) Picture
I use it as my PC monitor and have HD Cable hooked up to it as well. Since it is not 1080p I know I am not getting the best picture from the cable, but pictures on my PC a look fine. Does motion blur a little with sports and car racing.

2) Remote
I see many reviews of people complaining about remotes in general, but to me these are the same people who can't program VCRs (as they said in the old days (90s)-haha). Anyway this remote is very straight forward, one you understand the functions of "Menu" and "Enter"

3) Speakers
Nice looking. Pretty loud. Setting goes from 0 - 100. Its seams 1-30, 30-60,60-100 are fairly distinctive sound levels

4) General appearance - Looks clean. Stand is stylish

5) Size & Wt - Pretty thin and light

6) Inputs - The are on both sides (including speaker output) and have DVI (for computer). Not that there are multiple forms of DVI

6) PIP - Great. multiple size or even split 50/50. Bad thing is the PIP is surrounded by blue line which temperarily burns in.

7) CON - Burn in. Since I use this for PC Monitor, there are many websites that have the majority of the screen stationary. That image will burn in tempararily. So far nothing stays. However, I always make sure my screen saver is working. Also, as a PC we almost never turn this TV off.

8) Recommendation - I bought for around $600 from Sears. I haven't noticed this brand around as much as other newer names like Olevia, Westinghouse, etc. However, I would recommend at price more like $350 or less in today's market. However, you will only find Protron on Ebay, etc since there was a lawsuit between the company and suppliers. Overall this TV has been worth the cost I paid. I hope is last for another few years.
General recommendation when buying from companies like Sear and WalMart - be weary of their specif Brands (just as Kenmore products from Sears). They basically spec out to suppliers and go with the cheapest (which means service sucks unless Sears supports it and you are buying a cheaper made product).

I work in a electronics depaptment in a major retail store an let me tell you this little guy blindsided me. When I first saw this product I dismissed it much like everyone does because of its name. After seeing what it can do I was really suprised. First off this the overall design of the set is great. A deep black reflective surface gives it a very beautiful look. The buttons on the front aren't buttons at all, they're actually touch pads. The sheer amount of inputs on this thing is insane. It has 2 composite, 2 component, 2 HDMI (VERY IMPORTANT!), 1 S Video, and a SVGA input. It also has digital and optical sound outputs. The picture amazing. It transmits up to 1080i. I have a HD DVD player hooked up to this thing and it blows everyone away when they first see it. This set is not made by some no name company. It's actually made by Xerox. The contrast ratio is incorrect on this page. The contrast ratio is actually 1200:1. Anyone who is worried about buying one of these sets don't be. I swear up and down by it and try to sell as many as I can to my customers.
