Compucon H540S

Compucon H540S The Compucon display is quite plain and limited in features. It's only an analogue display and it doesn't feature any audio connectors. But on a better note, it's fairly robust. It has a sturdy base and a stand that offers good support for the display.

There are four holes on the back of the display, which could be used to mount this display on a wall. Although this display uses a Samsung TFT, it was no match for the Samsung-branded monitor in display quality.

The Compucon wasn't as bright and the colours didn't appear to be as vivid, but to its credit the Compucon was just as sharp. The Samsung is only slightly more expensive than the Compucon, making the Compucon a relatively poor choice.
