      Any problems with this? Good price on ViewSonice otherwise. I have a 19" and it's been good for several years.

      I have one. Failed to a solid white screen at about 3 months old. Paid to ship it to them for RMA repair, received it back still half broken, DVI input doesn't work. Could be my random sample was bad, but I suspect the design is flawed and the circuit that switches between DVI and analog broke, as I was using it on a bench to often switch between two systems connected, one by DVI and the other by analog.

      Note that it ships with an analog cable but not DVI, and the analog cable is very thin and poor quality, causes ghosting. Tried cable on a different system and monitor and still ghosting. Tried a different analog cable with this monitor and ghosting was gone. Why couldn't they just include a dvi cable instead?

      Beyond these issues, overall it's fairly good for a TN panel at this price, but it is still a TN panel meaning there is less difference between this and a cheaper TN paneled monitor than between this and non-TN monitors. Also has limited range of tilt, probably not an issue unless your desk is especially tall or short.
