Dell Launches Affordable E207WFP Wide Monitor
by Richard Ozerman on October 13, 2006

The E207WFP is a 20-inch wide flat panel with a 5ms response time - great for gaming or movie watching, but better for the thrifty, thanks to its $289 price tag. Since it’s so cheap, you can convince your boss to buy two and link them together to form a 40-inch widescreen system to watch pirated movies on one while doing work on the other. We did this years ago and our productivity skyrocketed!

These lower-priced screens will most likely be given away for free with select Dell desktops, so if you’re in the market for one and also need a PC soon for upgrading to Vista, you could wait and grab both of them together early next year.

  • If we want to get technical, putting two 20 inch LCDs side by side would not give you a 40 inch widescreen setup. If the monitors are 3×4 then two of them would be 3×8 and your diagonal would be about 34 inches. To get a 40 inch diagonal screen out of the 20 inchers you would need to put 4 of them in a 2 by 2 array.

  • well yeah Wallosoup, if we want to get technical

  • Richard, I don’t see this on the Dell website. When is this price going to happen?
