No disrespect to Kermit the Frog, but it’s actually a helluva lot easier these days to be green, especially with corporate marketers working overtime to tout any and all energy-efficient / environmentally-safe qualities of their products. Such is the case with LG’s new Flatron W2252TE LCD monitor, which the company claims is the “world’s most energy-efficient monitor.” LG says the Flatron model uses 45-percent less power but still manages to serve up enough contrast and brightness for all that web surfing and all those games you like to play on your computer.

LG has released its new Flatron LX206WU, a new 20-inch LCD that eliminates the need for a new and good graphics card to have it up and running. The Flatron LX206WU LCD connects to a PC or laptop via its USB port. It offers a 5000:1 contrast resolution, a 1680 x 1050 native resolution and a 2ms response time. The LX206WU also has adjustable tilt and an analog/digital terminal support.

Making it even sweeter is that the Flatron LX206WU has two spare USB ports on its side which could be used to interconnect up to six of these LCD’s to be used on a single PC. So that answers your need to blog, to watch Beyonce’s latest video, skim through Google news headlines, and other things that you could possible do with three spare LCD connected to your rig. Now, who would want (or really need) to connect siz 20-inch LCD’s on their working rig anyway? I mean, I could dig tech geeks who use dual monitors on their machines as it has been quite the norm today. But six LCD’s attached onto my PC or laptop is definitely way out of my league.

The LG Flatron LX206WU is now available in the Korean electronics market and retails for 390,000 Won (around $388).
