So whats the deal with CornerStone monitors?

Good ? Bad ? Pros/Cons?

Their price and features make it so I can not turn away until confirmed that it is too good to be true. Anyone know anything about them. I know they have the Mitsubishi natural flat screen. They support high resolution and high refresh. WHATS THE CATCH !!!!:Q

As you might of seen me posting on monitors in the last week, I am planning on buying this Thursday the 14th if I can make up my mind.

I've had the Cornerstone P1600 for about 1 year. It looks very nice and crisp. Everyone compliments me whenever they see it. There are a lot of cheap 21" monitors around here that pale in comparison. I haven't seen any really expensive 21" monitors though, so I can't be the best judge. I read a bunch of reviews when I made the decision to buy a Cornerstone brand (simply since it was an unknown name to me). Most reviews don't include any Cornerstone model, but the ones that did always ranked them quite high, if not at the top.

yes, it's a joke... calm down
they're okay as long as you're
not really into design or anything.

And why do you say that? Many of our customers use our monitors in design applications.

Of the Cornerstone reviews I've seen, the one that raved the most about Cornerstone was from CAD users at Cadalyst. They liked how it had straight lines and great convergence. If that isn't good for design, then I don't know what is.

Edit: It is an aging review though, over 1 year.

I've personally seen only one in action, so I can't say with any real authority. However, when I was looking around for my current monitor, I read through countless reviews and didn't see any real positive ones for the Cornerstone line. (Based upon color correction, features, "tweakability", convergence, etc.etc)


[edit]
Please don't take it as a personal attack on Cornerstone monitors, my opinion was based on hearsay.
It was mostly just an opportunity to use my comicstore guy impression...

The deal - option for paying few bucks more for 3/5 years on-site warranty exchange.
