ViewSonic VP930b

Pros: Decent--but not great--text. Seems reliable. Great physical adjustments. Relatively nice looking simple black.

Cons: Color, brightness, clarity, menu adjustments, USB port.

Summary: I read a couple of reviews in PC rags raving about this monitor, and I like ViewSonics generally. This monitor just sucks I'm afraid. If you were using it alone you might not notice just how bad it is, but aside an HP LP1965 and HP f1905, it's just sad. In fact, it makes me a little sad to stare at this thing lined up with the HP's because all I can think about is what I could have bought from HP, or someone else. The white is a depressing dishwater, and the overall color quality is startlingly poor. (text is adequate, but that's about the best thing I can say about this monitor.) Do yourself a favor and buy a different monitor. By the way, I've experimented with different video cards, OS, and computers--with the same disappointing result.
