  • Looking for a monitor.

    I'm looking for a replacement 17" monitor that has a facia button to switch between 2 sets of inputs, (like my old Eizo 17") or a function on level 1 of the On Screen Display that does the same (unlike my current Iiyama).

    I've looked around, but this isnt something most manufacturers list in their sales brocures.

    Actually, I have no idea. I just replied to be the first (for once) to say: Corenerstone. Ha-ha !!! I've beaten everyone else to it even if it's off topic !!!

          the sony G200 17" monitor can switch between 2 inputs that way.
          This sig is a shameless atempt to make my post look bigger.

            My current Iiyama can switch between BNC & DSub via the osd, but its a royal pain in the buttocks because its about 18 button presses to get to the right place to change.

              With a Cornerstone it's 4 key presses to switch to another input and clear the OSD off the screen, without clearing the OSD it only takes two

                  LG 915FT+ cannot do it, but it's the monitor to buy.

                  Augh.

                    Sony overpriced, Iiyama overpriced (have owned both brands before)

                      My old (but fine) NEC has a switch in front. No OSD, no PnP, no EnergyStar ... and I love it!

                        You could also use a KVM switch.

                          Why spend $$ on a kvm when what is built into my monitors works perfect?

                            Are both PCs on at the same time? My old iiyama had (has) auto detection...

                              My current VMPro 410 (a702) takes about a dozen.
