Comment: LOOKS GOOD BUT DEAD PIXELS ARE FREQUENT~! Rating:
Looks good but poor manufacturing quality. Jesus I had to return four because of dead pixels. I had like 3 the first time, 2 the second return and the 1 the next. If you buy this lcd go to the stores like bestbuys so you can return em once a dead pixel shows up. Its quite annoying. Finally I got one w/ no dead pixels but about 2 days later I got a dead pixel. My friends dell/samsung made lcd was working for like the whole year and doesnt have one dead pixel.

I think I'll go Samsung. Sony products are going down the drain. They still got the looks but jesus once samsung gets a better look say buh bye sony.

Comment: Good, but it has one disadvantage like all other LCDs Rating:
Pros: light-weight, space-saving, no reflection

Cons: texts look bleeding

Everything about this monitor is good except for text bleeding. I thought it had something to do with graphics and can be fixed. When I did that, no results. I asked the saleperson, he said it's normal for texts look like bleeding at low resolutions in all LCDs and it has something to do with difference of pixels that CRTs have that LCDs don't. Have to go for 15" LCD or higher resolutions to take care of this problem, but texts look small and strain on your eyes after long period of time. So, I will take it back to the store and exchange it for one of the 17" or 19" CRTs that have crystal clear texts at any resolutions better than LCDs.
