- I've been using mine for 3 months now and couldn't be happier with it.
- The net.consensus at the time seemed to be that it was a very good monitor
- at an excellent price, but that MAG had questionable quality control. I
- decided that the savings over a supposedly more consistent brand like NEC
- was worth the risk. Incidentally, I have a MAG 15F; there are different
- versions of their 15" monitor; for instance, the one they produce for
- Gateway under the Crystalscan label appears to have more problems.
