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.

Hope this helps,
