Anecdotal information is sometimes the best we have, but I think it is
pretty risky. I have a 15" NEC Multisync XV15, and it has been a very nice
monitor. It's 6 yrs old now, although that doesn't mean very much; what you
need is hours of actual use.
Does Consumer Reports or anyone else have more comprehensive data on
reliability?
