This is a great monitor for the price. I took two, both backlit and one with a dead pixel. I don't mind, you get that for the price. Speaking of price, ViewSonic ups the price on them. I saw it advertised for about $179 on release day, I bought mine when they changed it to $219. Good price I think but now they raised it to $280. I mean come on ViewSonic? For the price it's not worth it in my opinion.See full review
