Top of the line,
By Newton Munnow "Newton Munnow" (Atlanta, Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: ViewSonic VP171B 17" LCD Monitor (Electronics)
For me, buying an LCD flat panel was revolutionary. For far too long I had an old fashioned monitor dominating my home office. Something so big that throwing it away may well have brought about an unnecessary hernia operation. What a joy to unpack the ViewSonic. As someone who does a lot of word processing, I treasure this monitor's ability to spin so that it can be seen from both portrait and landscape. Seeing the entire page you are writing is such a simple idea, yet in 20 years of computing, entirely original to me. The software is one-click installation and designed for techophones such as myself. To pass back and forth between portrait and landscape, you literally just turn the screen, right click, pick the angle, and there it is. Whole process takes less than five seconds. The colors also seem strong and accurate, fine definition. Money well worth spending.

Patience Needed,
By German Martinez (Orlando, FL (USA)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: ViewSonic VP171B 17" LCD Monitor (Electronics)
It's a Beautiful Monitor, and once you set it up correctly it's one of the best available on the market for the money. I love this monitor now; but it wasn't always that way. The first week I owned it, I was frustrated a lot; It was always either too light or too dark. The factory presets are lousy. But after a lot of tweeking, I got it just right. Now I can't live without it. The colors are rich, movies and games look fantastic, and all the added space on my desk is wonderful.

5 months and it breaks..,

This review is from: ViewSonic VP171B 17" LCD Monitor (Electronics)
I loved this monitor, it had beautiful color and resolution every thing that I need for working on video editing. That is until it just went black in the middle of my project due in three days! How could something held in such high respect be so lacking of quality. I took every step to ensure this monitor wouldn't burn out any time soon. It never sat on, never was left to burn the image, and always dusted and kept clean.Honestly, just to be fair I am sure I got one out of 500 that break. However I have to pay shipping to get it to Viewsonic for warranty repair/replacement; that is not good service. Then after three seperate emails I am not told how long it will take to get it back and that if I want an express exchange to get one immediately, I am told they will have to put an authorization on my card for the retail amount of the monitor. Still no word from them on return time estimate. I would have to fear what the other person says about warranty service and hope that the $3000 computer I used this with doesn't sit and waste in the time that it will take to be back at work again. We shall see, however I would not recommend this monitor nor would I buy another after my initial experience with it and the company.
