? Auto-adjustment of display position, clock, and phase for the VGA interface
? Audio base with Polk Audio active stereo speakers
? All-in-one audio and microphone cable
? An onscreen display (OSD) manager that allows you to adjust all settings through onscreen menus
? Power-management system (VESA2 standard) controlled from suitably equipped HP computers to automatically reduce the power consumption of the monitor
? Plug and Play capability (compliant with VESA DDC standard, version 3, revision 1 at the levels DDCI, DDC/2B, DDC/C1, version 1) that enables the monitor to identify itself to suitably equipped HP computers

Here's the "HP Pixel Policy." Whether it applies to refurbs is a good question as well as what hte warrenty is in general:

The HP D5063 display does not have more than:
? 10 total dot defects.
? 10 defective full pixels.
? 10 defective red sub-pixels.
? 4 defective green sub-pixels (green is most visible).
? 10 defective blue sub-pixels.
? No more than two adjacent (less than 2.5 mm edge-to-edge) and defective pixels.
? No more than two pairs of two adjacent defective pixels.

Here's something about the backlight:

The expected lifespan of the backlight is approximately 30,000 to 40,000 hours. At some point after the maximum usage time of the backlight has been exceeded, you may notice a decrease in brightness of up to 50%.


Response Rate: Information about this aspect is conspicuously lacking.

You need a Linky for the Lazy! and response rate is the total between the rise and fall of the screen painting I think. :p

the HP could be a better deal since it is DVI capable while the NEC is not...

its a nice monitor, the company my dad works for does the refurbing of them. the response on the 17" i dont think is that great like 45-50ms. but its a nice monitor because of the dual inputs. $480 is a good price, thats about the same as wholesale/employee purchase price for a refurb, so maybe pcmall is doing a clear out.
