I bought this for £165, which I think was a fantastic price. I'm looking for another one now, but can't find them for less than £210.

No hassle to get working, screw it to the stand and plug it in. The specs say it all really, 1600x1050 resolution, 5ms response time. Nice and bright, no dead pixels (in mine).

VGA and DVI inputs let you connect a PC and an xbox360, and switch between at the press of a button (something I find very useful anyhow).

If you use a resolution not native to the monitor (1600x1200 im using), a box pops up every time you come out of a full screen application, and only goes away when you press a button on the monitor. This can get quite annoying if you have to do it regularly.

Swivels easily, however I havn't been able to tilt mine, and I don't want to force it as I didnt see mention of a tilt function anywhere. Thankfully mines at the right height and the viewing angles are good anyway.
