wow, that is a great deal!

This is the same LCD as the Dell 2001 FP, correct?

Damn, I just paid $810 for the Dell.... what do u guys think, should I return it and get this one (100$ cheaper! )

 

[dc]

excellent resellerratings score too.:thumbsup:

 

[elbosco]

I'm not sure if this is the same screen as the 2001fp. I know the 2001fp uses the LG.Philips LCD LM201U04 but I don't know what the vp201b uses.

 

[olouie]

good deal, damn tax in CA

 

[pannam1]

The viewing angle is same on both, 176 degrees, same response time, same pixel size, same brightness and same contrast.

 

[teKillah]

damnnn they charge taxes in CA

 

[elbosco]

I must've been looking at something else than because I thought the 2001fp had a viewing angle of 88 degrees. Whoops.

But if the two monitors are the same, I'd return the dell and save the $100

Dear mods:

The publically accessible page http://shop.monitorsdirect.com/product.asp?sku=2550214 at Monitorsdirect shows the coupon code to enter.

Perhaps you should consider undoing your changes to the first post.

yep mods need to take a bit more time in address this coupon issue, i think a lot of the old hot deals glory is gone haha

 

[ponyo]

[estew33]

[John]

Could the price be so low since it is OOS?

 

[demenion]

MAN i want this!

 

[Imyourzero]

Wonder how long that coupon code is good for...

 

[IgoByte]

$720 shipped for me. Not bad at all...

 

[estew33]

I had to pay 50.00 in Tax, supposedly they have a warehouse in PA

Has this been out of stock since this was posted? Anybodt that ordered one, did they give you a potential ship date? Awesome deal, but I dont want to be sitting around for a month or two waiting on it to come in.

 

[divide by zero]

Showing In stock now.

 

[PinchyCM]

this IS the same monitor - but their return policy/exchange policy isn't as good as dell's. so if you get a dead pix, u pay the shipping back if i'm not mistaken...

i'd be all over this if it were the case - oh, and in august/september, viewsonic is replacing all these models with a 12ms version, hence probably the mark down. still a good price though - wish i could justify spending720 on a monitor. .

does this have an S-video in?
