Can anyone recommend suppliers and £ of Hard Glass TFT Monitors, we are looking to buy a few this year.

[ChrisH]

Just ask a few resellers for some prices on the Neovo ones. They cost about £160 for the 17" ones.

[Norphy]

There is also the Xerox XA7 range but they really seem to have shot up in price recently

[ChrisH]

I have had quotes for them as well and they fell just under the Neovo ones, but I stuck with Neovo as I know they are good kit.

Give CCLs education / corp sales team a ring on 01274 471203 they will sort you a price out, If you speak to Mark or Lyndsey tell them John from the forums sends you

We have the neovo, very happy with them indeed, though can't remember the last price we had...

I just put in an order with CCL for 33 of these at something like £147 ex vat each but they seem to be having trouble sourcing stock at the moment as my order is delayed.

 

I bought them from RM before and got free delivery but even with the £100 delivery from CCL they are still cheaper than RM this time. I think the RM price has gone up from before.

 

Really good monitors, solid and well built they have some bulk to them too so that makes them better than just a normal type of tft with a hard glass front.

Whats the benefit of the glass front?

TFT monitor + kids fingers = expensive paperweight, especialy when they realise they can make pretty patterns by pressing the screen :x

We've only had one damaged so far, but it's one more than I wanted.

Exactly I'm sorry but I wouldn't trust our kids with a normal soft fronted tft. RM have even produced a laptop with a hard glass tft on it which I think is an excellent idea.

we've had the soft tft's for 5 months - all gravy "Touch Wood"

We have the glass fronted ones in an adult learning room, covered in finger marks I have also visited another school where they had standard TFT's (without glass) they had none broken and thought these were better than glass front. Personally I think the non-glass are better, to break a tft you have to whack it hard and a glass front will only slow down the inevitable.

But a hard glass tft still has the tft panel behind it so to break it you have to break a sheet of glass and then the tft panel as well.

 

Plus you can clean them with normal glass/monitor cleaner.

I use AG Neovo E-17 monitors and they are great... excellent picture quality IMHO and you get the benefit of them not being prone to 'punctures'. Before I started my job, my predecessor had to replace a secretary's TFT after she 'popped' it!!!

 

Considering the number of blunt objects in her office and the number of pointy objects in a kid's pencil case it is a no brainer. They are only £160 which isn't a massive expense more.

 

BTW - The Xerox monitors look a lot nicer but I believe that the mounts are a little flimsy... unlike the Neovo cast iron-looking affair!

[Norphy]

We have about 20 of them, the bases are very solid

AG Neovo 17" from CCL currently £147.38 ex vat

Hi all, my first post here

 

We are just about to purchase the Xerox XAP 17" hard glass screen for £145 from http://www.compubits.com.

 

Give Pratik a ring on 0208 8671544 and mention me

[Guest]

Look here Listed at £139.99 but if you give the guys in the education dept a line im sure they will do them cheaper still.

These people do hard glass TFT monitors can give you the e-mail of one of the account managers [email protected] the company is as you can guess The IT Support Centre ltd Tel:01453 458714

They are very competitive in every aspect of IT. Give them a ring can't hurt can it.

P.S I am not on any commision just talking from experience

[plexer]

I'd rather pay CCL the extra than give any more business to MISCO personally.
