![]() Called customer service, they said I needed to wait 15-21 BUSINESS days for the repair. I sent it in and now I am waiting here over 3 weeks and IT IS STILL IN REPAIR. ![]() I was going to send it back to the purchaser, but then he talked to Viewsonic and got me an RMA # for this one. After hooking it up, this one had a thin horizontal line on the upper portion of the screen. I was hoping the defect in the 1st one was a unusual for Viewsonic. I was determined to get an RMA but didn't want to be without a monitor for a while, so I purchased a 2nd one thi nking I could use while the other was in repair and then have dual monitors on my PC after the first was fixed. I called Viewsonic technical support went through some tests and the tech claimed it might be the DVI cable. I originally thought it was the video card dying, but after I tried it on several other computers the same line was present dictating that it was a problem with the monitor. After a year of normal use, a 1/4" vertical line appeared on the right hand side of the screen. I originally purchased this model monitor because of it's size and Viewsonic's supposedly solid reputation with monitor manufacturing. Horrible Build quality, customer support, & RMA processįoolishly, I purchased two of these monitors since I wanted to have identical monitors for use with my dual DVI outputs on my Video Card. The final endorsement - my buddy saw mine and ordered one that night. To find a better performing 22" LCD, you would have to spend $100-$150 bucks more. It looked pretty darn good right out of the box. The OSD is classic Viewsonic and easy to use if you have ever set up a monitor to your vision/taste. This model has a silver insert in the base which is actually handy for paper clips and post-it notes. Looked like Do NOT install anything off that CD unless you must have the Parrot screensaver. Killed the new drivers I had just installed. Then, in a moment of weakness, I inserted t he CD-ROM that came with the monitor. ![]() I upgraded my video card (wanted DVI out) and installed the new drivers. But the specs of the viewsonic, especially the 1900 x 1050 resolution are what sold me. I know how painful it can be to use a lower end LCD 6 hours a day, and as I started my search I only looked for 22 inchers. 25 dot pitch glory!īut now its time to replace it. ![]() The footprint of this beast was measured in acres, but oh the beautiful. Not inexpensive - just under a grand, but worth every penny. Back in 1999 I bought a 21" P815 Professinal CRT Viewsonic. See, I'm a self confessed Viewsonic junkie. So I knew what I wanted when I bought the Viewsonic VX2235WM. I've used 17" to 21" LCD monitors at work for years (some good, some bad, and some plain ugly). ![]()
