Summary: Bad Pixel problem
Review: Great monitor but I ordered one from Amazon, it had a bad pixel. I sent it back and the replacement had a bad pixel, too.
Amazon has been good but my opinion of NEC/Mit. has plummeted. Where's the quality control?

Summary: Excellent monitor at low price...
Review: I've spent much time researching to buy a new monitor. At first, I went with 19 CRT from Envision. It was a mistake. The image was blurry and the screen does not match the edge of the screen despite of whatever I did. So I returned it and got SONY HS53 for over 440 dollars. But then I saw many reviews of dead pixels in Sony LCD monitors so I just returned it without even opening it.

Then I spent a few weeks trying to find the best monitor for my budget (less than 450 for 17 inch) and decided on either NEC ASLCD17v or LCD1760v. I also considered LCD1765 which was about 470 after a rebate and coupons. Among those 17v was the cheapest so I went with it. The only difference btw 17v and 1760v was luminance. 17v is 250 whereas 1760v is 260 which I think is a minor difference. Everything else was the same; contrast, response time.

I was worried that I wouldn't like it but when I connected it and saw the image, I was very satisfied. Text is very clear after a minor adjustment. The brightness is very good. And despite of my worries, thin bazel looked better than 1765 or Sony monitors with about an inch casing.

Frankly I do not have much experience with LCD monitors but I would recommend this to anyone who's looking for 17 inch lcd's. Its price is among the cheapest (~420) and its response time is impressive. If you have money, go with Dell (better one) or Apple but if your spending limit is near 400, this is a good monitor.
