NEC Intro MultiSync 19โ€ EA19M LCD Display WithEco Mode & Carbon Footprint Meter NEC EA19M Carbon Aware Monitor

It seems that, in the world of consumer electronics, just about
everything worth its salt is either pink or 'green' these days (the
latter serving to help the environment, the former just looking gaudy)
and there's no doubt that NEC's new MultiSync 19' EA19M LCD Display very
much falls into the former category with a set of eco-friendly
credentials that really ought to appease all but the most stringent of
tree-huggers.Offering a 19' high-performance PVA panel capable of a
maximum resolution of 1280 x 1024, NEC's MultiSync EA19M LCD is aimed
squarely at businesses looking to do their bit for the environment as
opposed to discerning hardcore gamers who wouldn't be seen dead with
such restrictive pixel counts.Whereas, from a base-level specs
perspective, however, the EA19M fails to impress where it undoubtedly
excels is in its eco-friendly outlook thanks to not only being awarded
an EPEAT Silver certificate (the EPEAT system compares different
electronics devices using 23 obligatory environmental criteria such as
energy consumption and efficiency, use of hazardous materials,
recycling, packaging and production methods) but also in offering two
modes designed to help the display cut down on power consumption.
Using a mere 38W whilst in operation and just 2W whilst in standby,
NEC's EA19M also acts to cut power consumption further thanks to both an
'Eco Mode' and a 'Carbon Footprint Meter' - the first serving to limit
the display's brightness to 60% of its full setting, the second
appearing as part of the EA19M's on-screen menu offering feedback as to,
in NEC's words, 'how much the carbon emissions are reduced when the
brightness is turned down.'

Apparently having just been made available - though we were unable to
locate a listing on the official NEC site at the time of writing - the
MultiSync 19' EA19M LCD is offered in either black or white (no pink -
bummer) and will set you back around pound sterling205.
