There’s no getting away from the fact that the Acer AL2671W is a fantastic display. It’s smart, easy-to-use, and delivers great picture quality. The caveats are having only two Scart connections, the lack of six-pin S-Video inputs, and the uncertainty over HDCP support. However, considering the fact that you’d normally expect to pay at least £200 more for an LCD TV of the same size, you’ve nevertheless got a product that offers astonishingly good value.
Update
It's taken a while but Acer has contacted us to confirm that the AL2671W's DVI port is indeed HDCP compliant, which is good news for anyone in the UK wanting to watch HDTV from Sky in 2006. Acer now just needs to get the manual updated to make this clear.
