I was shopping around for a monitor for my garage computer and came across this. I went to the Gateway store and was impressed. Not a bad monitor, expecially for the price.

18.1” LCD for $359.99 with DVI input, 35ms fall/rise rate,1280x1024, 90 warranty(see below for 2yr)

first get the 10% of coupon

then order the LCD for 399.99 and get the automatic discount to $359.99 with $2.75 shipping for a total of $362.74

I highly recommend the 2 yr warranty for $45.99

Sounds like a great deal. The only drawback on the spec. I can see is the 35ms response time which might be slow for animation or DVD playback (I don't know that, but I've read it). In comparison, my new Hitachi has a 16ms response time.

Response time is excellent. I use it for games and the such.

We are running these at our office. They are outstanding.

Yes ,I agree. I picked up one of these as a gift for the inlaws and played Unreal Tournament on it. The specs may say 35, yet the image was brilliant,colors vibrant, and the refresh was excellent. In fact it was better than my 17" Dell all around, and that was a great monitor. I just picked up a 19" Viewsonic and the Gateway and Viewsonic are very similar. Both excellent. Not one dead pixel. I'm going to pick up another Gateway for the garage computer. For $359.99, it can't be beat. I would recommend it.
