About this product
The NEC Vintage MultiSync LCD Monitor LA-15R02, model LCD1700M+, is a legacy LCD display from NEC's MultiSync line. With a 17-inch screen size and a standard LCD panel, it is designed for basic computing tasks from the early 2000s. Priced at $359.99, this monitor is not intended for modern gaming or high-resolution multimedia use, but rather as a collector's item or for retro computing setups.
Our take
I picked up this NEC MultiSync LCD1700M+ out of nostalgia, and it's exactly what you'd expect from a vintage LCD. The 17-inch screen is small by today's standards, and the image quality is nowhere near modern panels—colors are dull, and the resolution is low. It's priced at $359.99, which is steep for such an old monitor, but if you're building a retro PC or need a period-correct display, it might be worth it. Just don't try gaming on it; the response time and refresh rate are abysmal. It's a niche purchase at best.
