- I hate to add noise to an overflowing group, but I have to mention that
- the NEC 5FG is *wonderful* at 17 inches. There is no moire patterning,
- and there is almost no deviation at the corners (forgot the technical
- term). This is a good monitor. At $1300, I consider it well worth the
- money for all the eye strain that it saves me.
