Rating: Summary: Almost 3 Years and Still Going Strong! Review: I bought the E200 in December 99 and it has been a great monitor. This was my first Sony. I've previously owned NEC & Viewsonic. The flat crt screen, (new then but common now) works great with text. This monitor has great contrast, bright colors and good screen geometry. The single button menu control takes a little bit to get used to, but once you get a feel for it, the menus are easy to navigate. The best thing in my experience with this monitor is the reliability factor. It has been absolutely rock solid. The PC I use basically runs 24/7 and the monitor is probably in powered up/in use for 8-9 hrs avg. per day. If this monitor is still available at a fair price, I would highly recommend picking one up if your in the market for a 17" Flat CRT. However, I have heard that the E210 is the exact same monitor with a 3-yr factory warranty vs. 1-yr with the E200. So if the price difference is negligable, I would go with the E210.
