Beats the competition [Posted on 2004-09-06]
I looked long and hard at Sony, Samsung and Envision monitors before I bought this, and I have been very satisfied with my purchase. It is crystal clear with text, graphics and movies. Set it up with decent speakers and it's great for DVDs.

Determine a monitors Sharpness [Posted on 2004-10-01]
Most stores have WinXP as the OS. To determine the sharpness when displaying type faces - find out where the keyboard and mouse are located. You may have to ask a clerk to get you out of the screen saver to the "desktop" window of WinXP. Press Start/Run.. and type in wordpad and press enter. Then mouse over to the font size and get it to Arial size 12. Then type rounded capital letters like O Q P R G B D C. If I saw the O as a 8 sided stop sign -- I would reject that monitor. BUT there is a way to get the display to be in ClearType. Hit Help to learn how. Then after ClearType is active the capital O etc will display as rounded letters.

On this NEC 1765 monitor I saw it as rounded letters - so I wanted to buy this one. But I hate the plastic front covering because of the reflected glare from background light. Thats why I rated this with only 2 stars. Dont get me wrong - this is a very good monitor NEC usually is.

I just bought a 19" monitor lizzard by Sharp which has a contrast of 700:1 and 3 analog inputs which can be switched from a button on the front + it has a DVI input making it ready for the future. The screen display has a button to change the display instantly from a colorful gaming mode to a more subdued modes. I havent opened the box yet but folks here on Amazon gave it 5 stars.

my beautiful 17 inch NEC LCD [Posted on 2004-10-25]
I got my MultiSync LCD-1765 about half a year ago and it is so nice. It sits on my desk, freeing up tonnes of room for my keyboard which is always nice. It is built very sturdy, which in my opinion is a good thing. It looks bigger than it really is, says most people. I play quake3 Rocket Arena on it all the time and its quite fine. It turns off and on in less than a second, which is faster than some CRTs I know. It is one of the best LCDs I have come across so far. NEC is a good brand to trust. It matches my grey logitech MX700 wireless mouse. I gave it 5 stars because I have found absolutely no fault with it.

love it!!! [Posted on 2006-12-01]
i have had mine for almost 3 years and it has been running like a champ except for the buttons not working on the side any more because of a small static electric shock accadent when i was going to turn it off one night leaning over from my bed so other than that it has had no problems i just use the power manager to shut it off i would recomend this monitor to any one!!

Worth every pennies!!! wish they have a bigger verison + DVI [Posted on 2008-05-06]

Can;t express how awsome this monitor is.....pay $550 in 2003 & still think it worth evert pennies....the design & quality is execellent, never seem a monitor as good as this one.

just don't understand why NEC stop manufracture this unit. I'll be the first to grab one if there's a 19" or bigger version with DVI support.

Damnit.....just too glad i bought one...
