I just received this monitor about 3 hours ago, and so far so good. It was easy to set up, but no drivers were included, .... They work with windows2000 and 9x. I of course had to adjust the image with the on screen controls. The image was off center and one side was tilted up, but that was easily fixed. This is not a flat screen, but for the price I did not expect it, that said, the curve is not bad and doesn't bother me at all. The images are very sharp, and the text is good, but could be a little sharper. The length of the monitor is shorter than my 17" CTX, and I was pleased to find out that it is TCO99 compliant. The warranty also looks good because it is 3 year with shipping paid both ways during the first year. (that's the main reason I took a chance on it). Since I have been using it for about 3 hours, I can't comment on the durability, but I would rate the picture between that of my KDS VS-195sn and my LG Studioworks 995e with it being closer to the LG (better). Like the LG, I have noticed a little fading where black and light images meet - the lines are not crisp at those places. Also when I was booting windows I saw curvy lines go accross the screen, but they disappeared in a few seconds as the monitor warmed up. The date of manufacture on mine is November of 1999 so I assume they have been sitting around for a year. ...
