Dell Makes Clear Statement on Style and Innovation With Crystal Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor

Posted on: Thursday, 3 January 2008, 15:00 CST

Technophiles with an eye for beautiful design now have a clear choice in widescreen flat panel monitors -- the Dell Crystal. The award-winning 22-inch LCD display, crafted from four millimeter ultra-clear tempered glass, offers an ingenious fusion of art, technology, sleek form and sophisticated function. Priced at $1,199, Crystal is available at www.dell.com/crystal.

The Dell Crystal adds style to any space with fine, sculptured details like a polished metal tripod that supports the "floating" screen. Audio speakers with subtly wired circuitry are cleverly integrated into the Dell Crystal's svelte frame, and the inconspicuous webcam and microphone sit flush above the display. Capacitive touch controls with intricate but discreet wiring provide visual simplicity and functionality, and single-cable connectivity finishes out its clean presence. The 1680x1050 image resolution makes the display suitable for both personal entertainment and general-purpose computing.

"The Dell Crystal is a direct result of listening to customers and applying that inspiration to create strikingly original products that are beautifully functional," said Steve Gluskoter, director, displays product marketing. "For consumers who value technology with iconic design, Crystal offers an eloquent expression of their high-def lifestyle."

Fusing Art and Technology

The striking design of the Dell Crystal display is fused with high performance technology to deliver one of the best front-of-screen experiences today, including:

WSXGA+ 1680 x 1050 resolution

2ms typical response time (grey to grey)

2000:1 dynamic contrast ratio (typical)
