    You need to be directly centered in front, if you are at an angle, the picture starts looking off. Otherwise a great monitor/price

    Long, short screens are horrible for web-browsing, editing documents, etc.... you know, the MOST COMMON USES of a PC. They're just suckering the rodeo cowboy who don't realize that a 20" widescreen LCD has less screen space than a 20" 5:4 or 4:3 LCD.

    Just got one of these. Reds seem to have the worst color shift across vertical viewing angles. Looks pretty good at native res on VGA once you get the pixel clock and sharpness set properly.

    The 16:9 ratio at this high of a resolution does make viewing fixed-width webpages kind of awkward (lots of white space on the sides), but for movies it's pretty nice.
