In order to satisfy the demands of their students for a larger screen size and also to protect the value of their investment, The Oldham College decided to replace 200 of their legacy display monitors with the application specific hard glass 19" display monitors from Edge10. The first 100 units were delivered in October 2006 and the second 100 units were delivered in December 2006. The Edge10 displays were used with their current PCs in many different faculties of the college from their Music Studios to their Art & Design Departments.
Jon Evans, IT Manager at The Oldham College confirmed that the Edge10 T190 displays replaced the legacy CRTs and standard LCDs that had become out of date and out of warranty.
All Edge10 display monitors have the Kensington Lock fitting on the back of the cabinet. However The Oldham College required a stronger fitting to suit their specific requirements and were delighted that Edge10 could accommodate immediately. Edge10 sourced the tempered steel plating locally and without delay. The steel plates were specified to the exact requirements of The Oldham College and the Edge10 T190 displays were installed just a few days later. The Oldham College was delighted with the speediness and efficiency of the Edge10 Technical Support Team.
"It was essential for us to source hard glass displays as previous LCD monitors had been damaged unintentionally by students and staff poking the screens. I am very happy with the Edge10 hard glass screens. They are of a very strong build quality and well-suited for schools and colleges" confirmed Jon Evans. "The support from Edge10 on designing and installing the Kensington Lock for us has been very quick and professional. The Oldham College will definately be taking more Edge10 hard glass display monitors this year."
All Edge10 Toughened Glass LCD Monitors have hard glass which is rated at 8H on Moh's Scale. The hardened glass not only protects the screen from damage by a finger, pencil, biro or scalpel but also offers sharpest contrast, vibrant colours, wider viewing angles, reduced eye fatigue and enhanced brightness with less power consumption. Naturally all Edge10 Monitors are environmentally friendly and use just 10% of the power that the previous CRT Monitors were using.
