For that price who could disagree. I have one of the NEC's, and while quite 
expensive I think it's well worth it. The image is very clear and crisp even 
with my CL5434 card. There are none of the usual distortions towards the 
corners/edges of the screen, but a very minor mis-convergence in the extreme
top right corner. It also has one of the flattest tubes I've seen.

I like it - a lot, but am thinking about one of the Idek's for the other
machine. For the price, the NEC is a bit limited in terms of bandwidth
and resolution compared to the rest. IMHO 1280x1024 is about as high as
is comfortable on a 17" and it manages that, only at 60Hz tho', but a 
surprisingly steady 60hz all the same.
