After lurking a lot on various groups, I’ve tried to buy an Iiyama 19"
monitor without success. Oh, I guess I can create
an excuse for a week’s trip to London for one (must do a proper
evaluation, don’t you know?) but I’ve about given up on
this brand however well-recommended it is. LCD’s seem to have taken over
in the USA!
Next choices are one of these two:

A. Viewsonic G90F with a Mitsubishi, aperture-grill, Perfectflat
(Diamondtron) tube 19".
B. NEC/Mitsubishi with the same tube, same size.

Pricing is within $20 so that’s not a consideration. Both have a
three-year limited warranty so it’s down to support and
general manufacturing quality.

I plan to use this monitor as part of a photographic
system…Camera–>Photoshop–>Calibrated
Monitor–>Epson2200–>Pleased Customer. (If all goes well)

Both are excellent choices. Put the extra 20 towards a calibration device.

I will appreciate hearing the collective wisdom of the group.

Shame. I love my Iiyama. 🙂

Thanks,

Go for the Mitusbishi because I’ve seen good reviews of it (it’s the same tube as the Iiyama, but Iiyama handle it better, though it’;s still a good second choice) and my personal experience with Viewsonic (and that of friends) means I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone.
