Review on ViewSonic VX2235WM 22-inch Wide Monitor: Crisp 1680X1050 Resolution on a Wide Screen by David Suite

I bought this on a whim at a sale in Circuit City to replace my LaCie CRT. First I noticed that the text was much more washed out than my CRT and the color was far off. I spent about 2 hours trying different settings until they were almost acceptable. I later noticed that the monitor was darker at the top and lighter towards the bottom, so a solid block of color looks like a gradation. After about a couple of months, noise and artifacts started appearing on the screen, as if some kind of interference was disrupting the picture. By the time I discovered this, it was too late to go back. And the thought of dealing with notorious customer service left me cold. I'll let this be a $260 tutorial and look for better reviews from users like me next time. I wish I had spent the money on a $600 monitor, I think you get what you pay for (or maybe less).
