This LCD screen is great eye candy, sure, and it doesn't take up as much room as your basic desktop monitor, and it's a good buy for a person who does nothing on their computer but, say, word processing and web-surfing. BUT, if you are a computer gamer of ANY kind, this is a very, very bad buy for you. It's not just this LCD monitor in particular, it's all LCD monitors- they become a blurry mess in almost any kind of computer game, primarily FPS (First Person Shooters), flight sims, RPGS (Role Playing Games) and just about any game where the action is remotely fast-paced- even in some strategy games, such as
Age of Empires II. Besides the fact that this [thing] costs mucho grando dinero, the blurry-factor is enough to dissuade the wise buyer. Ciao!

I have to utterly disagree with the former review. I have *2* of these monitors, one at home and one at work, simply because it is such an enormous improvement ona CRT monitor. Your eyes will totally thanks you, believe me.

The picture quality is fantastic - sharp, easy on the eyes.

Overpriced? It's all relative. To me, it's worth every cent, and I am never going to work with a CRT monitor again.

This monitor is amazing! You must see this to believe it. It's the most wonderful consumer level piece of electronics ever made!

besides the price being high, the picture quality is bad, and it is a strange shape, not to high and very wide, that makes all programs and websites look strange. this is not a good choice, and i don't recomend it to anyone
