I've had this monitor for over a year now and it is one of the best monitors I have used! Although there is no DVI and the 16:10 widescreen isn't HD, who cares at this price. The monitor is used for photo editing, light gaming and word processing. Unlike 23 inch displays, this monitor won't hurt your eyes over long periods of time and fits all of my windows reasonably well. My complaints about this monitor is that the tilt of the monitor is very stiff and limited and that the back has this awkward design that makes many webcams incompatible with this monitor, for the power supply (In layman's terms, the bulgy part) is a bit too high to clip the webcam on. Also, the bevel buttons are not very responsive, sometimes takes two presses to turn it on. One design score that I love about this monitor is that no part of it is glossy. It's all a bumpy black plastic. All of the new glossy monitors attract fingerprints more than those jail cards and require cleaning every day. The point is, if you are considering a budget monitor and this is on sale, get it immediately. Also, mine was received with no dead or stuck pixels. just thought I should mention.
