One of the best -- when it works -- customer service, what's that? [Posted on 2006-04-26]
This is the best of all possible monitors... the only problem is that it doesn't work all the time. Imagine my surprise to hook this up and to see the dazzling quality of the screen image. I was truly amazed. Then fifteen minutes later the screen goes dark, not even the Menu will come on, it's really dead. So, I turn it off and five minutes later it comes on again, still dazzling quality.
After this cycle happening five times I called Sony and got right through quickly but this guy had to send me to a "monitor specialist". I WAITED ALMOST 2-HOURS and was told that the monitor was dead and that I had to ship to San Diego (from Boston) for evaluation and they would either fix it or send me another one. They wanted ME TO PAY FOR THE SHIPPING and then to wait two weeks for the return.
I was ticked. I tried to argue that there was a difference between a monitor going bad after a few months and one being DOA. But, they didn't want to listen. I asked for a supervisor and this moron told me the same way and when I tried to argue my case HE HUNG UP ON ME.
So, I guess I'll send it back. But, even though I probably have $10,000 worth of Sony products they have lost me for life. I don't think they care about the long term value of a customer.
My suggestion is to buy it from a store where you can return it for another and not have to deal with the Sony sales prevention department.

Amazing [Posted on 2006-07-21]
I have had this monitor for about a year and a half now. It still looks as amazing as it did the day I first turned it on. I have never had any problems with it. In fact, It fell off the back of my desk two or three times, and still works fine. The las time, the frame around the edge popped out, which caused some distress. But it simply snapped back into place, and still works perfectly. I highly recommend this monitor.
Good design, good monitor [Posted on 2006-09-14]
The stand on this and other Sonys is very well designed. Most other manufacturers use a footpad and hinge arrangement that can leave the monitor wobbling at the slightest provocation, particularly if your desk is on the light side. But this monitor is rock solid. It's also light on desk space and has a good range of image controls. An excellent choice for a basic monitor.
Best monitor for the price [Posted on 2006-09-18]
Given its stability, the excellent quality, and so on I couldn't ask for a better monitor for the price. I've had it for over a year and it works great.
