Nice, great price

white Reviewed By: Scott on 4/18/2007

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great picture quality. No dead pixels. Solid construction. Great price. No useless, tinny speakers to bulk up case.
Cons: No DVI. No speakers -- you may want speakers in your monitor ... for some reason.
Other Thoughts: I needed an LCD that would fit into a 16" wide space for a friend's new system. She wanted a widescreen, and it's very difficult to find a widescreen LCD that's not a 19" model, and doesn't include useless speakers. Where, here it is -- a 17" widescreen, exactly 16" wide, trusted name brand, at a low price. The picture is great -- not blindingly bright like most low-priced LCDs, and not one dead pixel. The stand is solid and not shaky. I highly recommend this if you lack room for a 19" widescreen or just want to save a few bucks.

didn't work at 1440/900

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Uh, its an inexpensive monitor.
Cons: Couldn't get it to display properly at 1440/900. This is with ati 2600 512 mb card on xp. Also the installation directions explicitly tell you to ignore the warning by your os(msoft) that the monitor is not msoft logo approved! I'll probably be returning mine and getting a different monitor, by a different manufacturer.
Other Thoughts: I guess it could have been worse.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Nothing special
Cons: None...rebate problem
Other Thoughts: I am still waiting on the $50 rebate that came with this purchase. Viewsonic is dragging their tail and now after 16 plus weeks they say the check must be lost and they have to reissue another one. I dont for one moment believe it

So if you are looking for any Viewsonic rebates, make sure you dont mind waiting triple the time they specifiy
