If the prices are the same, the ViewSonic is likely to be the superior one
in quality. Basically, you can't go wrong with ViewSonic in terms of image,
clarity, flexibility, etc.

Subject: [PCBUILD] LCD Monitor


> My almost 4 year old Micron 17-inch CRT monitor finally bit the dust last
night. There was a loud buzzing sound (like electricity through a wire) and
then the monitor abruptly turned off. So now I'm in the market for a new
monitor. I'm looking at the 15-inch LCDs and have narrowed it down to 3
models- based on what I looked at last night in CompUSA. They are (in order
of preference):

> Envision EN-5100
> Samsung SyncMaster 570v
> ViewSonic VA550
>
> I spent several hours this morning reading reviews and such on the web but
would like real-life opinions. Has anyone had any experience with these
monitors? What can you tell  me about them - both good and bad? I never
heard of Envision until I went looking last night. Is it a reliable brand?
Would I be better off with a name brand? The prices are all about the same
on these 3 models.
