Great Flat Panel

 

Great Flat Panel

This monitor has great picture quality. I've used VGA and it is still excellent quality. My brother experienced some problems with the screen flashing pink, but I think it's actually a video card problem, and not the monitor.

Excellent Monitor, But it May Not Be for You.

I have never owned an LCD display but have wanted one for the past year once the technology seemed to be up to the task of making a large display at a reasonable price. I bought the Viewsonic VX800 because of my experience with Viewsonic monitors...

Pricey...but an very, very good LCD monitor.

I bought the VX800 back in November 2002. After 5+ months of usage, it's been a great monitor. Married to a dual processor Macintosh w/ a 64MB video card, this monitor has performed flawlessly. No shadows, not one bad pixel - not one bad thing to say...

Product Specifications

Perfectly suited for executive offices where portrayed image and image performance are paramount, the VX800 looks great from the front or the back. With its striking matt-silver and black casing, the 18" LCD monitor personifies the perfect synthesis of cutting-edge display technology and extraordinarily elegant styling. The VX800 delivers all the comfort of a larger viewing area but without compromising quality. Thanks to its compact form and ultra-slim profile, it has a minimal footprint to fit on virtually any desk. The stunning monitor's MVA panel ensures a viewing angle of up to 160 degrees while the incorporated OptiSync technology enables connection to both digital (DVI) and analogue sources. The integrated bezel-mounted speakers and microphone provide support for multimedia applications.
