Finally, HP didn't forget to throw some green news into the mix. They've got four new, eco-friendly displays for us, ranging from 19 to 24-inches: HP Compaq LA22f, HP Compaq LE19f, HP ZR22w and HP ZR24w.

The ultra-green (or white, actually) of the quartet are the 22-inch HP Compaq LA22f and 19-inch HP Compaq LE19f. Both are solid state White LED displays without mercury and set to low power, consuming 50% less power than previous editions. They're also free of brominated flame retardants and polyvinyl chloride, making it easier to recycle. And for the final touch, they will be packaged 100% recyclable corrugated cardboard.

The 21.5-inch HP ZR22w and 24-inch HP ZR24w are a bit more basic being LCD displays. But the aluminum-accented displays are 85% more energy efficient than their predecessors, include 4-port USB hubs and have 8-way comfort adjustable stands that tilt, pivot, and swivel.

The HP ZR24w is the only one out of the four not noted to be Energy Star 5.0-qualified.

All of the monitors have DVI, VGA and DisplayPort inputs and the option for a USB graphics adapter for up to six simultaneous displays.

No word on release dates or prices yet, unfortunately.
