ViewSonic VE700 17" LCD Monitor

Summary: Amazing!!... for that price
Review: If you are thinking upgrading from a CRT monitor to LCD, do it now!! Simply there is no comparation between both. I bought this monitor to replace my 19' Viewsonic E90. I always thought my old monitor was one of the best, but when I put it side by side the difference was huge. The VE700 is very sharp, clear and with a great look. DVD's and Games looks great when there is not much movement (even NFS 6 works very good). Since its native resolution is 1280x1024, you will need a good graphics card to play at this resolution because on other resolutions the image look fuzzy and with shadows.
A mayor cons for me was the fact that the stand does allow to move the monitor horizontally and also it is to short. The auto adjust resolution doesn't always work as you wish but if you have time, you can adjust it manually.
The on screen menus are sufficient and very easy to operate.
The botton line, for the price your are paying, you are receiving a very good monitor, especially if it is your first LCD monitor.
