Unfortunately, the old adage "You get what you pay for" applies here. I purchased this LCD to work as an external display for my iBook. Video quality is no where near what I've seen from other LCDs-- including those from Apple and Dell. Text is especially fuzzy. I also tried the LCD monitor with my Windows-based PC and experienced similarly poor (if not slightly better) video quality. I am very disappointed, to say the least. This is either going on eBay or will be returned to Amazon. :-(

I ordered the monitor and received it quickly. Set up was a snap. The monitor looks nice and works well with the exception of the speakers. At what appears to be full volume, which is difficult to tell with the lack of a user's guide, it is not very loud at all. It almost is a whisper, not bad if you want to play a music CD in your cubicle, but more troublesome if you want to participate in a web-based seminar. I have requested a replacement, so will hold out final opinion until another monitor arrives.

No dead pixel, bright screen. Blurs a bit in 1024x768 mode, but clear in 1280 x 1024 mode. It's worth $200

Looks like Alleurs(sp)LCD. Wait for DVI type with better quality. Speakers are useless w/soundblasters or THX systems.

The price was right! Nice Monitor, but has about 10 bad pixels. Should have better quality control at the factory, or at least a notice that they are sub-quality. Performs well other than the dead pixels.

5 dead pixels (in different colors); Color is not even (especially when black screen); objects will stay on the screen after previous screen. Pictures are fine. Returned!

There is no sense in comparing this LCD with higher end models because frankly it doesn't stand a chance. However, this LCD screams value in the sense that for well under $200 you can ditch that old CRT and update your desktop to 21st Century Standards.

Brightness is excellent. No dead Pixels. Very clear and easy to read. Graphics look fantastic. Great looks. Awesome price.

I'm getting a second one. That's how much I liked it.

After reading the reviews from other purchaser of this monitor, i was skeptical about it, then i priced others and that is what decided it for me...i am very pleased with this, granted the speakers leave alot to be desired but i wasn't getting this for the speakers anyway. For the price i am pleased with the brightness, and no dead pixels on mine.....and it takes up alot less space than the old kind. If you are looking for speakers...go buy speakers, if you are looking for a good quality flat screen monitor at a good price then you have found it.

Considering that I paid only $150 for this (after rebate), I cannot complain too much about the 1 dead pixel near the edge of the screen. You get what you pay for, and I wanted a low price LCD. I am not going to send mine back since I can live with one dead pixel. If this would bother you, you might want to stay away from this brand since dead pixels appear to be pretty common. And yes, the built in speakers are very weak and require amplification of some sort to be useful. Otherwise, colors and response time seem to be fine for my needs, but I am not a gamer.

Got the first one. Looked fine, but with poor quality speakers and 3 dead pixels. Ordered a replacement from Amazon, and promptly got the replacement yesterday. This one has one dead pixel. Looks like very poor quality control. I must commend Amazon for prompt replacement.

Two out of two are bad, so I am returning both of them and looking for a different manufacturer. If you do get one with no dead pixels, how long before one dies? These cheap monitors must be from a rejected lot. My recommendation : DON'T BUY IT!
