I've been placed in front of both the 17" and 21". After about 10-15 minutes,
I found it very difficult to continue. The colors seem washed out, and
the curvature of both screens was quite noticeable. IMHO, NeXT is doesn't
seem to take color seriously; if they did, there would be a trinitron
offering. On the other hand, I think the NeXT mono (gray) is very nice,
although it could use an anti-glare coating.
My advice:
a.) Buy the color station, but get the monitor elsewhere.
OR
b.) Don't buy a NeXT, and learn to live with X :-|
I'm satisfied w/ nearly every other competitor, when it comes to color.
