and really likes it. The dispaly and colors are excellent. I know she watches Blu-ray movies on it and they look great. She also plays some of the hi end games with no problems.
Her only complaint is that it doesn't tilt.

Thanks for your input.
That's the main complaint I see people say about this monitor.
Is there a problem with the color blue????
I saw someone complain that the color blue was showing up as purple for some reason.

ViewSonic

I have had outrageously good luck with ViewSonic and Samsung. Back in the mid-1990s the government agency I worked for did an extensive examination of monitors in anticipation of a huge purchase and we chose ViewSonic. That may not be all that relevant today (they were all CRTs back then) but we never had a failure even though we had HUNDREDS of them in service, nor have I had one fail in my home.

I am sitting here looking at my 29" ViewSonic right now and still loving it! I actually like the ViewSonic a little better because both of the Samsungs I've got have their power light blink when the computer is turned off and the monitor left on (like most people do). On the ViewSonic (and most others I've seen) the light changes color and remains steady but dim, which is much less distracting.

Thanks for the reply!
29" is too big for my use but I will check out and see the reviews on the ViewSonic.
