Editorial Review: Product Description: The Gateway 26" LCD TV produces an amazing home-theater experience with a generous viewing area, high-definition capability and a wide-format screen. Sleek and portable, the 26" LCD TV makes for an ideal extra TV that won't take up a lot of space. Amazon.com Product Description: Gateway's versatile, high-quality, and high-definition 26-inch widescreen LCD television offers abundant connections for your PC and your home-theater gear. It's fully compatible with both DTV set-top boxes and high-definition computer signals, featuring component-video, VGA, and DVI (digital visual interface) inputs--as well as an NTSC tuner for immediate over-air reception. Hook it up with a progressive-scan DVD player to get the full benefit of your discs' seamless, 480p resolution. The set's broad, sleek screen has a 15:9 widescreen aspect ratio that closely matches the dimensions of your favorite movies. (A 4:3 aspect-ratio set of the same screen width would have a 28-inch diagonal measurement.) Kitchens, bedrooms, offices, or dormitories will be equally well served by the set, which includes a table stand to simplify desk- or table-top positioning. LCDs are more power-efficient than either CRTs or plasma screens, and while they may not be as bright, overall, as plasmas, they get more wallet friendly every week. You'll see none of the irritating scan lines or flickering that's visible on CRT sets or monitors, and you can forget about both ghosting and image burn-in, no matter how many hours a week you spend parked in front of your favorite video game. This Gateway TV is no slouch in the specs department, offering an impressive 600:1 contrast ratio, high (450 cd/m2) brightness, and a wide, 170-degree viewing angle. A total of nine video inputs consist of RGB PC, DVI, high-definition component-video, two S-video, three composite-video, and an RF coaxial/antenna input. The set's motion-adaptive 3D digital comb filter enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt). Stereo speakers with 5 watts per channel offer strong, clear sound, and you can always plug a pair of headphones into the set's headphone jack for more private (or just louder) listening. Bass, treble, and audio balance controls let you tailor the set's sound output, and, for more spacious-sounding programs, 3D sound processing simulates surround sound through any two speakers. A stereo minijack (.125-inch) output facilitates hookup with optional external computer speakers, and a monaural minijack output lets you use an optional subwoofer to enhance the low-frequency response of your listening system. What's in the Box TV, table stand, remote control, remote battery, RF coaxial video cable, stereo analog audio/composite-video interconnect, power adapter, AC power cord, TV antenna, user's manual, remote control manual, and warranty/registration information. Average Rating:
 Rating: - A Good starter HDTVI have worked in TV broadcast engineering and have to say that this TV is quite capable as an HDTV monitor, but the contrast, brightness and color will alway default to some unrealistic level. The color especially is too hot and even though it can be adjusted, through an on-screen menu, after some minutes the TV will reset itself to this default value. Gateway were good enough to replace the original unit, only to find the replacement has this same "bug". The S-video along with the standard video inputs do not suffer the above problem. Each input can be set to its own individual color, contrast, brightness, repective of source. If you like bright colors this TV is for you. If you are more of a purist, don't touch this one.
