Title: not a good monitor
Review: having previously owned a gateway monitor with a diamondtron tube which was very good, i bought this one. the unit i got had horrible vertical convergence (NEC-Mitsubishi has a sofware utility with test patterns for you to try to adjust everything) and a 10% dim spot on the right side of the screen. this was not due to some local magnetic field, as moving the monitor changed nothing. The vertical grid wires were loose near the dead spot. NEC-mitsubishi tech support kept telling me to "whack" the monitor to get the wires unstuck, but the problem is that the wires move *too much* and aren't aligned (you can see the wires on that part of the screen vibrate upon whacking). after much wrangling with tech support they very very reluctantly agreed to ship me a new one. the new one had good convergence but had the same exact dim spot on the right side. so i give up. if it takes more than 2 tries to get a nondefective monitor, it's not worth buying.
Is the review positive or negative?
