Can 2001fp handle A/B inputs?

For the moderator or any current 2001fp owners,

Can the 2001fp handle both analog and DVI inputs from 2 different desktops?  I currently own a Samsung 170T with analog and DVI inputs. I have my main desktop pc using the DVI input and an older Dell pc that I use as a printer server using the analog inputs. On my current monitor I can select which source I want to view by hitting the A/B button on the front panel. Can the 2001fp do the same?

Thanks

hi

i just looked at a picture of the 2001fp, bottom view, and looks like it has a vga and dvi connection. so you should be allright using 2 desktops with it. on my 17inch viewsonic vp171b, i have 3 computers attached to it, 2 analog and one dvi.

good luck

Yes, the 2001FP has  a button on the front panel that can be used to cycle through four inputs: VGA, DVI, composite, and S-Video. The only catch is that it takes about four seconds to switch, which seems pretty slow to me.

Thanks for the responses. I've been considering getting this monitor since the review in Anandtech came out.

This has DVI, VGA, S-Video, and Composite Video inputs, all are selectable and it can do PIP with various sizes and positions. PIP is only avail on SVID and COMP video inputs. Can't do CPU IN CPU PIP unless you have a geforce with Svid out.
