 That would be the Viewsonic 6FS.  Windows Magazine just had a short article
on 15" monitors.  They compare Amdek AM/815, Mag MX15F, Mag LX1564,
Nanao Flexscan F340i-W, NEC 4FG, and Viewsonic 6FS.

 The only one they really didn't like was the 6FS, stating poor image color
and imprecise user controls.

 The also didn't like the Amdek for it's slightly washed image.

 The Mag, Nanao, and NEC were all favorable.  I'd recommend you look into
one of these instead, they'll be about the same price.

 That was the Feb, 1993 issue of Windows Magazine.

 Also Byte had a comprehensive review back in April or May of 1992 of
various 15-17" monitors.
