Awesome thanks...i tried searching for PW201 and didn't find anything so I made a new string...

Anyway, I'm still looking for info on scalability for that monitor, and I can't find any info...I know its expensive, but it has every feature I want (and some I don't but are nice to have), plus the stand is great. And I don't really care about viewing angle because I tend to look right at my monitor when I'm using it.

I think I've read every single PW201 review, and even called a few local stores about scalability, but I'm getting nothing...if anyone has any experience with windowed games or scaling in general on this monitor I'd love to hear about it. Scaling is a major concern of mine with the viewsonic 2025, and at this point I'm willing to spend the extra money for a monitor with a portrait feature and the ability to scale.

Thanks in advance....

I HAVE IT! it sucks! i can show u pictures... worse purchase in a long time... It's beautiful, but it doesn't work! I'm so fed up with ASUS customer service right now because they won't return my phone calls or return my emails. I call and there's nobody to pick up for techinical support for LCD monitors. It tells me the wait time, but forwards me to a machine. So f'n annoying... i'm going to RMA this monitor and hope that the next one i get works properly. The buttons are unresponsive to my touch, and the menus freeze. The aluminum base is nice, but it's a cover held on by adhesive. the cover is losing its adhesiveness one side so it's not sitting flush. Good warrantee, but not a monitor i think i'd be able to rely on. I owned 2 NEC lcds before running dual display and upgraded to this for the response time, I regret it so much and now I wish I purchased the 21" NEC...

Yeah that's the problem with anything Asus.... their customer support is atrocious. Unless that changes I'm never buying anything of theirs again.

OP: THG did a review on it, did you catch that one?
