This is a high-end 17" consumer grade monitor, which Midwest Micro of Ohio,
one of the biggest and most reliable of the national mail order resellers,
lists in its Aug., 1995, catalog for $835.  (Midwest lists the retail price
as $995.)  The unit I am selling was purchased from Midwest in May, and has
more than 2 1/2 years left on the manufacturer's warranty.  The purchaser
will receive the original invoice, all manufacturer-supplied documentation
and the original shipping carton (if you want it).  The unit is in perfect
condition; no unilluminated pixels or other functional or cosmetic flaws.
Very crisp display, with good contrast and color rendering, and a well-
designed electronic screen adjustment subsystem.  I've been very pleased
with it, and am selling it to upgrade to a 21" monitor (also manufactured
by Viewsonic).

Price is $700, firm.  Local pick-up only from my home in Northwest D.C.
Inspection on working system prior to purchase for qualified purchasers.
(If you are not ready to buy, you can see this monitor in several area
retail outlets; call Viewsonic marketing support at 800-888-8583 to get
a list of outlets nearest you.)  This is an excellent opportunity for
someone who wants to upgrade a PC or Mac to a high-quality 17" monitor
at a bargain price.
