Instead of a shelf shape where the cables come in from the bottom, its what I'd describe as a scoop shape, where the cables come in at an angle and then twist vertical to secure the connection

First of all being, why the hell were there not more cables that came with it!?

I will update this review as I use them and find the different quirks (if any).WARNING: This monitor DOES NOT come with a DVI cable like most other monitors do...it only comes with a worthless VGA cable so be sure to add one to your cart if you don't have an extra one laying around somewhere

Here's the kicker: I convinced my neighbor to get one before I started having these issues with it, and now his is doing the same exact thing!I've done some research and it appears it's a problem with the very cheap cabling inside the computer

I'm afraid that this pressure point might degrade my DVI cable over time

One thing to be aware of - the space for cable connections is very limited, and bulky and/or stiff DVI cables may not connect securely, so shop for the smallest and most flexible DVI cable

But my standard DVI to HDMI cable works fine with it.

Sure, you didn't put HDMI in here, and yes you included a measly VGA cable, but WHO CARES

only issue is the ports are a tight fit in the back. if you ever consider monster cables or any other thick heavy cable for your monitor, you will find it almost impossible to fit without using a cheapie adapter.

Did not do my homework because my older dell 4600 only had VGA port---therefore cable was useless

I'm now able to work as though I'm using two computers at once.

However, I couldn't help but notice that the edges seem to be cheaply glued on, as it's easy to push the LCD into the monitor encasing
