I know for a fact Envision makes the world's shitties CRT's.
Lemme tell you a story.
My old Acer 15" CRT died two years ago. I then shopped around, and I noticed CompUSA was selling an amazing Compaq Flat-Screen CRT monitor, for about 25% off!
17", 1600x1200, I heard somewhere Samsung made the tube.
I was sold.
But it had to go back. Shaky Image.
Second one was bad too.
I exchanged it for a 19" Envision CRT. What a piece of shit!
The image was warped, fuzzy, and the colors were washed. Returning shit there is a bitch.
I used it for eight months. During that time period, I discovered that roughly 50% of the EU's who bought Envision CRT's had this problem, according to reviews.
Those people included my friend and my Grandma.
At the end of eight months, it died. YAY!
I took it in, full of glee. I shopped online the day before, and found a great LCD.
The Norwood Micro (CompUSA brand), 15" 16ms LCD. I tried it out in store.
Whoa. Amazing monitor. Bought one right then.
They had roughly 80 lining the store shelves in overstock.
It turns out this thing is worth more than I thought.
It has an Acer (AUO) panel, and a NovaTek ADC that is so clear you would swear it was running off DVI.
Best monitor ever. Avoid it at all costs. Uber-Pricey, but I only paid $30 out of my own wallet for it, so that really is a good deal. My parents bought me the first one.
Oh yeah, my friend had an Envision 17" LCD, and it blew donkeys. It has pinstripes running down it and shit. His sister works at Best Buy so he got a $1200 23" LCD for $800 or something.
Rich bastard.
If you want a good LCD, get a Benq. Mine is essentially a pseudo-Benq, and I love it to death.
The box it came in also has a LAN handle. Perfect.
