I am very happy with this monitor. I have played about 2 hrs of Splinter cell and have no complaints using the DVI and my TI4200.

Just got mine but I had to goto work. This thing is huge. Came with the DVI and Analog cable along with a speaker cable. Was only able to hook it up to make sure it worked. There must be an inf file out there somewhere cause WinXP sees it as a regular monitor and I can't change the refresh rate from 60hz. There is still time on this deal. It looks well built and did I mention that this thing is HUGE.

All LCD's are 60Hz. That's just how they are.

i heard it's not real 16.7M color -- it's via dithering (which is NO GOOD). anyone can confirm this?

It's not dithered, it's real 16.7M color. I think it's a rebadged Planar PL191M. Its OSD is identical to my older Planar CT1904Z.
Very nice monitor, I bought it for my wife's machine and she says it's so much sharper, brighter, vivid, and with more vibrant colors than the 21" FD Trinitron that it replaced.
