Excellent – I purchased this monitor about six weeks ago. It was well worth the money to get the 2ms response rate. You can pay $50 less and only get a 5 or 8ms refresh rate. This is the one for you if you are into online gaming. It came with both DVI and D-sub cables for connecting to your pc, so there was no having to go back to a shop to purchase a correct cable. Another plus, is that it is possible to view two full size documents or web pages at once without squinting. On the downside, the set up buttons located below the screen are stiff to depress, especially the on / off button. Another downside is that to take full advantage of the 16:9 widescreen view, I was required to purchase a 256meg video card. Shop around for this item. I paid only $499 at Austin's Computers in Rockingham WA. I did see it for $599 at Retravision, and their sales rep said he couldn't even buy it from his supplier for the price I purshased it for. 2 ms refresh rate. Both D-sub and DVI cables suppplied. Ability to have two full size documents open on the screen at once. Setup buttons below screen are stiff to depress.
