Good monitor
Pros: Looks Great Great user options mountable stylish trusted brand name
Cons: Pricey now that bigger cheaper monitors have come out, but its still worth the money.
Other Thoughts: I would stick with this version of this monitor because its got a very good resolution for such a small space giving you a great picture.

Viewsonic 17" LCD
Pros: Excelent quality, I work with dual 19" viewsonic monitors and the 17" one that i have at home blows them away. The pictures are very sharp and flawless. It is a really simple plug and play type of monitor. Highly recomended.
Cons: None that I can think of. Oh wait I know, its to thin and the pictures are too perfect...
Other Thoughts: I am going to buy an other one soon for dual monitors at home.

First LCD Monitor... Whew! It worked!
Pros: Recently switched from CRT's and even this low end LCD looks great! Cheap; good starter LCD.
Cons: None yet.
Other Thoughts: After the horror stories I've heard of dead pixels; having all of them work on my first LCD was fantastic!

Pros: Looks very pretty picture while it worked. No dead pixels!
Cons: It died 2 days before the 30 day limit.
Other Thoughts: Use VIEWSONIC if your monitor dies! DONT'T go to Newegg, and if you ask them for a proof of purchase with your serial number on it, it won't happen so don't try. It might take a few calls but they do a better job at helping you than Newegg.

awsome
Pros: I ordered this to clear desk space and have been so impressed I ordered a second to donate to nontoxicteencenter.com This is an amazing monitor for the price.
Cons: Takes up too little space, now I have paper work all over my desk instead of a CRT
Other Thoughts: working a budget to build a coparable system to the box store this LCD beats anything I seen prepackaged at the box stores and my friends!!

Terrible customer support
Pros: none
Cons: I've been on the phone with Viewsonic customer support every week for the last 2 months trying to get a replacement for this monitor which failed after 2 weeks of usage. I get nothing but promises and excuses.

Disappointed
Pros: very slim and small footprint, base folds up for easy transport, very bright whites, no dead pixels
Cons: the auto picture adjust is Terrible with a capital T, the response time is insufficient for gaming, the color accuracy is poor - everything looks washed out a bit, like a picture taken in to much light, and the lack of DVI input results in slightly fuzzy text.
Other Thoughts: Every time there is a signal change (reboot, coming out of power save mode, switching resolutions, etc.) you lose your image settings because the auto adjust kicks in. This is beyond frustrating. When I switch from 1024x768 to 1280x1024 the auto adjust shifts the screen down about half an inch. This creates a black bar of empty space at the top of the screen, and the start button gets pushed off the bottom of the screen. To fix this I have to manually adjust the picture position higher - every single time. I would only recommend this monitor for an environment like a library, where it will be run at a constant resolution and not be powered down, and a cheap price is more important than quality. But for my needs I find it unacceptable.

Better than I had hoped!
Pros: The best pro is that I can't find a con! My first LCD and now I wondered why I waited. I may not have exotic demanding use for it but I can't find anything that I don't like. If there is a dead pixel someplace, I can't find it. The sharpness amazes me. Hard to believe I got a monitor this good at this price.
Cons: Refer to the first sentence of the pros.
Other Thoughts: I am the type of person that appreciates good packaging. I am always pleased with NewEgg when they ship.

Good Monitor
Pros: I've ordered two of these and I love it. Great Monitor. Great quality. NO DEAD PIXELS!! You could order a 19" for the same price in a cheap brand but go ahead... roll the dice on how many dead pixels you get.
Cons: No Cons

Great 17" for the money...
Pros: Exellent image quality(Fair control over it,but good out of the box).No ghosting or image smearing with movies or games(like quake,fear,far cry e.c.t).
Great price and a great buy.
Cons: No 1600x1200(not a big deal at this price). Not very adjustable(it can't tilt forward) Dosn't have DVI,but again...your not paying $400+
Other Thoughts: Monitors are hit or miss...they either work well or they are doa/rma.If you get dead pixels on ANY lcd it dosn't mean the display model is junk,it means you got a bad apple.Send it back and get another.
In hindsight,I wish I had bit the money bullet and got a 24" widescreen or something larger.I like PC games though,so no display is ever big enough.

Not a bad deal
Pros: Nice and bright LCD monitor...actually too bright. (Had to tone it down a little). No dead pixels. Good moinitor for general use after a color calibration.
Cons: Like all monitors in this class, it's not the best for detailed photo editing. Not smooth enough with 0.264mm pixel pitch.
Other Thoughts: As always, Newegg is great to do business with. Received the monitor within two business days from placing the order on regular shipping.

Very Dissapointed
Pros: I'd have to honestly say that there aren't too many pros to owning this monitor. It was cheaper than the rest and has a small footprint.
Cons: Two dead pixels.One being a lime green on the upper left size of the screen, and the second being a red in the middle. This monitor made my 7800 GTX output look bad. Switching back to CVT
Other Thoughts: If you want a flatscreen, spend more money on a 20' +, or just stick with a CVT

Pros: Crisp image, very bright.
Cons: Do not buy this monitor if you are doing any graphics work. I know that LCD's are not the way to go if you want color correctness but this monitor is atrocious. There are very dramatic shifts in color intensity from the top to the bottom of the monitor. I know this tends to happen with all LCD's because of viewing angle but i've never seen it this bad.
There is also a ton of ghosting for games.

I'm thrilled with it.
Pros: Very small footprint, easy to set up, bright, clear, crisp picture.
Cons: None yet.
Other Thoughts: I bought three of these monitors and all three worked flawlessly out of the box. They were up and running with the drivers installed within 10 minutes, two on one desktop, the third on a 2nd desktop. The picture quality is excellent, the text is crisp, the styling is lovely, the graphics seem fine for the low-end gaming I do, and the footprint is very small.
Next time I go looking for LCD monitors, I'll buy more of these.

Nice
Pros: Good price, I rather get a quality 17" than a cheap 19" for the same price.
Cons: One dead pixle in the middle of the screen. It shows blue when the screen is black.
Other Thoughts: I wasnt sure about this screen, but I noticed that my college had ordered about 50 of them for a new building. I figured that they were good enough for me. I wasnt dissapointed.

Not as good as CRT for gaming
Pros: Auto alignment works well. Picture is bright. Small footprint (hey it's an lcd!" No dead pixels. Plugged it in and away it went. Easy set up.
Cons: Base adjustment is limited and somewhat hard to move. Gaming quality is a little grainier than CRT's so I noticed degraded quality in gamings. Eye strain might be an issue for some over extended time. But, better than earlier gen. LCD's.
Other Thoughts: Bought it for my wife to save space on her small desk. She won't be gaming on it. Just right for her needs.

Its at my doorstep already?!
Comments: It must have been some sort of miracle but the monitor that I order over the weekend arrived noon on tuesday! And for the record, I live in Hawaii (yeah I can't believe it either.) Most things usually get here in 3-5 days, minimum. Anyway, tested out the monitor for a couple hours and I am impressed. No dead pixels, no missing parts, and a exceptionally sharp display makes me one happy customer. As usual, Newegg rocks!

Comments: This is my second Viewsonic, first one was 5-6 years ago and i was happy w/ that, i'm thrilled w/ this monitor, clear picture enough adjustments to make anyone happy. Little upset at some of newegg's shipping policies but it all worked out in the long run.

Not Bad!
Comments: Good monitor. Arrived with zero dead/stuck pixels. No ghosting in any of the games I've played. .264 pixel pitch makes for a good sharp picture.
Thats all the good stuff, now for the not-so-good. If you dont use native resolution Picture is blurry so if you plan on gaming, make sure you have a card that will handle 1280x1024.
P.S. Newegg shipping is incredible.

Comments: I too had high expectations for this monitor. I was replacing my Megavision. Very disappointed in the clarily. Guess I should have paid more attention to the difference between SXGA and Active matrix/TFT. Everything, especially the lettering looks pixelated. Not smooth. I do a lot of photo editing and it is very difficult with the images being "pixelated". As soon as I can pawn this one off on someone for close to the price I paid, I'll get a different monitor. Probably go back to my beloved Megavision brand.

Had high expectatinos, however...
Comments: This monitor made me sad. It was going to replace an old Sony SDM-HS53 that I wanted to get rid of. When it arrived, I got all excited only to find that it had a stuck yellow pixel right in the middle of the screen. I've tried every technique (rubbing?!) there is to revive a stuck pixel, but to no avail. It was stuck good and quit annoying! On text it was ok, but try graphics or movies and just forget it. It contrasted painfully on dark backgrounds. I believe they should take better measures during manufacturing to ensure that dead/stuck pixels are eliminated.
The lighting was poor. Sure the monitor was bright, but I could see brigher spots on the monitor where the lamps were located. I would have a few bright and a few darker "blobs" on the monitor: very disappointing.
Also, the monitor had the "wavy" effect of older CRTs, which was very odd for an LCD, but sad nonetheless.
Lastly, the display resolution was nice and big, but it was extremely difficult to read at its native resolution of.
All of this combined made for a very poor piece of technology. It's been replaced with another viewsonic (15") that I am very satisfied with.
Don't knock my review just because I had a stuck pixel. It is all too common for them to occur. Don't be suprised if you have stuck pixels, they are easy to get especially with monitors that have a larger native resolution.

Perfect!
Comments: Nice size, very light and thin. Sets up in seconds. Great auto picture adjust function. This is the perfect standard LCD monitor, very affordable. No dead pixels on mine, but there's always that chance. It happens sometimes. This is my second Viewsonic LCD. I'm very satisfied with their quality and value. I highly recommend this monitor for users wishing to upgrade to LCD.

Best bang for the buck
Comments: Recieved this monitor today. Absolutley gorgeous! Nice crisp picture, and colors that bring pictures to life. Made FarCry look 1000 times better. I did have 1 stuck pixel though....it took a helluva lot of rubbing to get it out but now im pixel perfect. You can browse the web for a program called pixel fixer that helps remove stuck pixels. Overall the best monitor I've ever owned.

Comments: Great service through Newegg, received everything soon than I thought I would. The monitor however has one dead pixel and it realy makes a good monitor look like bad. Wish they had better quality controll. Monitors like this should be sold at a discount. You can't tell me they did not know it had a bad pixel before thay shipped it, the manufacture that is.

Comments: This was my first LCD purchase. I bought three of these for a multi-monitor setup. Not a single one has a single dead pixel. The image is bright, clear, and easy to read. The controls are simple and the auto adjustments work well most of the time.
I am not a gamer, so I can't comment on how games play.

Great!
Comments: Fantastic monitor. I've used an old LCD monitor and didn't think it was so great, and was expecting the same quality with this monitor, but this monitor blew me away. Great color and clarity, great design, looks great. What more could you want?

Excellent LCD
Comments: Viewsonic makes wonderful monitors and this 17" LCD is no exception. The monitor was very bright out of the box, so I turned that way down. No dead pixels and at 75Hz refresh it is beautiful.

Comments: Ordered a pair of these for a dual headed display, to replace a CRT/LCD setup. Not a dead pixel between the pair! Very nice, although like some others the brightness was a bit much for me. Also hard to match gamma between them, not all the same I guess.

Excellent Monitor!!
Comments: I ordered this monitor knowing ViewSonic makes good products. They didn't disappoint. No dead pixels. Vibrant color, clear display, and very sleek appearance. I did have to turn the brightness down though. An excellent monitor for the money!

Comments: This is an excellent monitor. No pixels were bad out of the box and the image is bright (one-touch controls to brightness on the screen) and crisp. Highly recommended.

Very happy
Comments: I am very happy with this monitor right out of the box - and the price is awesome right now! New Egg shipping is lightning fast, as usual. This is a replacement for a (dead) 17" CRT and the difference is spectacular. I like it even better tan my 19" CRT!!

Stuck pixels come out!
Comments: Great buy for the quality. It had one stuck pixel, on red. I was able to rub it out though after a little elbow grease.

ok but 1 bad pixel
Comments: I guess the monitor is pretty nice but I have one stuck pixel and it's very annoying. There is this link some say can fix stuck pixels but not dead ones. But be careful to read the forums, some people said they had more after they ran the video but some they fixed their LCD monitors. As for me it didn't make it any better or worse. Great sharpness and color though, even if it does have one bad pixel.

GOOD Monitor at a good price
Comments: I purchasesd the View Sonic VX715 first. Liked it a lot, so when I saw the VA720b at this price, I ordered it for my Bride. She was working with our old CRT and was having eye problems. Now she is more than happy with the VA720b. It does a great job with our photos as well as text. I use Photoshop Elements 2 & 3 with great success. Both of these View Sonics do well with photo editing applications.
