This a great product that produces a crystal clear picture at a resolution of 1440 x 900. It also has an IPOD dock and SD card readers built in the base. ViewSonic is the real deal, don't hesitate because their name isn't Dell, Sony, or HP!!
I was a little leary to buy a refurbed monitor. I priced new and used monitors, but decided to take my chance with this one. I am very glad that I did. I have had no problems what-so-ever. Clean, clear images, good audio....VERY NICE MONITOR. I love the IPOD docking station. I can charge and play my IPOD directly from my monitor. I also have good words to say about the company I purchased it from. I did not know how to set it up at first. I called the company, and they talked me through it step-by-step. A+ rating.
I've had my monitor for two months and I couldn t be happier. The picture quality is excellent. I find the ipod docking station nice and all the accessory connectors being build in extremely convenient. I bought this model for the build in ipod station. But the picture quality and all the added features where the icing on the cake.
