Decent Monitor
Pros: Nice monitor, no dead or stuck pixels. Good for the price. Very good display when plugged into DVI.
Cons: You have to buy a DVI cable separatly. It took some messing around with VISTA/NVIDIA drivers to get it to work on the DVI port. It worked right away on the D-SUB port, although the display was a little streaky vertically. Requested assistance from Envsion and got "NOTHING"
Other Thoughts: I bought this to run with another LCD of similar size in a dual monitor configuration. Overall I am pleased, but it was a real headache to get it set up in VISTA. Worked right off the bat in XP (I have a dual boot configuration). I would buy this monitor again. It "may" not be plug and play in VISTA but, I don't think it's the fault of the monitor. Be aware that you may have to uninstall and update your drivers to get it working with VISTA/NVIDIA, especially on the DVI port. I just can't quite give it five eggs mostly for the hassles I had.

Pros: I went from a 20" CRT Monitor to this. Before switching, I played Thief (third one) and when you were in the shadows, it was really dark. I plugged my new monitor, and the image improved, but due to using a VGA cable, it was still dark. Once I plugged in the DVI-D cable, the image very sharp and clear, and the shadows have a lot more light I wonder how the guards do not see me, I can so easy see them.
Cons: First few days the LCD was great, but then the top and bottom started to bleed white light. I am one who doesn't normally complain about something so small, but the light got worse, and now the sides of the LCD are being affected. Due to this issue, it is very hard to view any games that are dark...like Thief.
Other Thoughts: We'll see about getting this RMA'd.

Not bad monitors
Pros: Good Monitor. Stand tilts (I was expecting a fixed stand) Excellent contrast.
Cons: Couldn't get the DVI working right with my nvidia card under ubuntu. Not a problem with the monitor though. slight lack of crispness under VGA input.
Other Thoughts: More than I expected given the price. I don't use the speakers, so I don't know how they sound. I bought two of them to replace 3 CRTs and they are way beyond what I had. Overall very pleased with them.

Envision -- NO Out-of-Warranty Service
Pros: Envision makes really nice monitors and TVs. Mine lasted three years, trouble free.
Cons: There is NO out-of-warranty service from Envision. That's NONE. ZIP. To quote their representative: ”recommend you to try with an electronic repair shop.” No service network listed on Envision's web site.
Other Thoughts: No complaints about NEWEGG. They are great. Always on top. Envision makes nice displays, but they are throwaways once they are out of warranty and something goes wrong.

Big and Bright
Pros: Bright, good color, very narrow frame.
Cons: I've only got a few days to send in the rebate and I won’t receive it for another 12 weeks. By the time I get it the dollar might be worth about 30 cents.
Other Thoughts: I don't have DVI until I get a new computer so I haven't had a chance to see what it can really do.

First DOA
Pros: Looks huge comparing to my old 17" LCD. Speakers for convinience. Picture quality is great
Cons: 1st monitor was DOA. But newegg was on the ball like always. Prepaid return and even upgraded the to 2day UPS.
Other Thoughts: Dont care about no DVI, have bunch of those, but getting a dead monitor after being all excited about finally buying one is bad.

I LUB IT! =D
Pros: Great picture quality even with the Analog connection. 16.7 Million Colors. Great contrast ratio! Great brightness level. Everything in games is crystal clear. Looks like I have anisotropic filtering on when I don't =D and I can't wait until I get my new video card with this monitor. I will never have to scroll right or left on web pages again. Worked from the time I plugged it in =D And when I get my new video card...well... lets just say...this monitor's response time...I won't even be able to tell the difference from my CRT!
Cons: None except for the fact that it doesn't come with a DVI-D cable and I bought the wrong one. Make sure you get a DVI male-male connector. I bought a DVI-D male-female and I wasted 11 bucks on something pointless! >=[
Other Thoughts: I lub it! =D

Great Monitor
Pros: This is a very good monitor. Picture is very clear. I've experienced no lag in video games.
Cons: Have to use a digital cable. VGA cables messed up my picture very bad. The stand isn't adjustable.
Other Thoughts: This is an upgrade from my old 20" CRT monitor.
