looking for quality 15-17"

yeah the hitachi right now is a guess one of the best out right now with the 16ms response time.. but i think the viewsonic Vg171 and the Samsung 170T both 17" models are also pretty nice Monitors...also pretty stylish

does anyone have a samsung 152t (just for a 15inch option) that could let me know what they think of them?

Those dogs can smell anything. That's why you gotta kick em in the throat!!!

well, i know you posted 15-17.. but those were the only other monitor's besides that hitachi, that i would ever think about buying.. besides.. 15" ARE YOU NUTZ!! dam, i wish i had bigger then a 17"

But, no i don't really no much on the 15" model, i just know that the 170t isn't that bad of a monitor

well...being that a decent 15" is like 400 dollars, I'm not sure I afford a 17". Being that a 15" LCD is similar to a 17" CRT I don't see it as being that bad. I have a hard time warranting spending much more than 400 bucks on an LCD monitor that will never compete with an equal priced CRT of larger dimensions; so I guess 15" is my only option since a 17" of the quality I desire is out of my reach.

well. it's for my gf and she wanted something to take up less space. i ended up getting a ve500 today. it was a little bit less than the online prices i was looking at and the place will replace it for even ONE dead pixel so i figured it was a good deal. i too have a hard time paying so much for LCDs when I saw 19" sony trinitrons (older g400 models) for 200 bucks, BUT it's what my gf wanted, not what i wanted and she doesn't play games so this monitor will serve her well.

Contrast and resolution are really important and it's a good idea to read the reviews ...

Can't always believe the specs
