Has anyone here actually used an Acer AL1913W ?

Or has anyone seen a review done by an established website?
 
I'm staring at one right now. We bought 2 for work. One for my desk, and one for a software demo computer.

It's not a bad monitor. The text is razor sharp. Looks like DVI, but it's d-sub. It gets damn bright too. I'm using it at 50 contrast / 45 brightness right now, and it seems perfect. Colors look good and it has fairly even lighting. There also doesn't appear to be much edge bleeding of light.

I actually considered replacing mine at home with one of these, as it's only $260 or so. But it doesn't offer that much more screen real estate compared to a 1280x1024 lcd. It's native res is 1440x900.
 
thanks man.

Considering i'm coming from a 17" CRT, i'll simply save the extra cash and go for a 2005FPW when it's on sale.
