I'm posting this as a hot deal, and as a request for information.

I have not heard of the manufacturer on this one, it has a 3 year warranty.

Can anyone tell me anything good about this?

Hopefully a hot deal for someone. . .

nice response time, but not too good contrast. Resellerratings has mixed reviews about the site. I don't think I would want to deal with an unknown company when buying and LCD. I learned my lesson on that one.

Provantage is NOT an unkown company. They are huge. I have bought from them several times without problems

Bothers me that it's "not returnable".

Ditto. Provantage is a very good company. Huge is to say the least. They have so many warehouses i don't have to wait more than a day for any of my orders.

Looks like the same monitor that's at tigerdirect for $179 after rebate:

I searched around last week for this model and found some good reviews in german It seems like videoseven (v7) is a bit more known in europe.

TD? No, I'll stick w/ the better company for $20 more thank you...
Nice find, I've been looking for a 17" around this price.

CompUSA has this 17" LCD for $180 AR ($300+ down up front, however). I just checked it out B&M but couldn't get any real test on it like DVD playback or game performance. I played around with a nice widescreen LCD in there that had Halo on it, and the reponse and performance was pretty bad, and I attribute it to the PC they had it on. So I'm not sure if I could have even gauged the performance of the $180 LCD on their weak systems.

I hope 17" LCD prices are coming down; I'd love to get one.

LOL Yeah, you gotta love it when people call a company an unknown just because they've never heard of it.

Anyway about this deal, there is no DVI on this LCD.
