AVAST is working on EIZO
More than 250 EIZO LCD monitors were supplied to Avast programmers over the course of the last 3 years.
|
About half of the lot are 24" FORIS and EV models. The other half consists of 27" SX2762 and EV2736W monitors. |
Another favourable criterion is the affordable 27" monitor with an ultra-high 2560x1440 resolution, which is becoming a popular standard for today's programmers. No less important is the low consumption ensured by modern low energetic backlight systems ("white "-LED and "RGB-LED") as well as the high reliability of EIZO monitors that come with a 5-year warranty. |
