For the money the picture quality is very good. The only shortfall is that the emissions spec is MPRII, which is the minimum.

Also, there's rebates (source intentionally left out) with lower shipping charges. One rebate just ended, but a second is still available.

If you have an opportunity to preview one, that would be a good idea. I found it to be superior in image quality to the newer 775e, which is perplexing given they most probably use the same tube.

Purchased this monitor from you guys - Amazon - after I heard a buddy of mine touting it non-stop. He was raving about it being a great deal and great quality. So, I listened and bought it. From my experience so far, I really am impressed. I am a gamer and I spend a lot of time on the net. So color-rendering is important to me. Thi smonitor fits the bill nicely in this area. Graphics move smoothly across the screen and the color just pops. There are easy to use adjustment features too. The best thing of all is the FLAT surface. Its just FLAT and so nice to look at. No glare from lights in my room, make it much easier to look at. There is something about these FLAT screens that make it so appealing. There are other monitros out there but this one - for this price - in my mind cant be beat.

I bought this monitor for a new system that I built six months ago, and have been very pleased with it. The picture is very clear and bright at 1024 x 768 resolution, and the colors have been awesome with an ATI Radeon 7500 video card. The display is very, very easy on the eyes, and I've been glued to it for hours on end without any hint of eyestrain. It installed easily, but it took a little while to get the picture centered and straight. I did get it tweaked with a little patience, though, and that's been my only gripe about this monitor. The on-screen menu is nice and offers a lot of options.

I didn't get this from Amazon, but from another retailer. Watch for rebates on these monitors, as Envision offers them quite frequently. I also recently bought a different Envision monitor for another system I built, and that one has performed wonderfully as well. Envision makes good quality monitors at a good price, and I highly recommend the 770e.

After reading the mixed reviews here I wasn't sure if I should get this monitor. Still, I knew I wanted a 17" Flat CRT and the EN-770 was a good price so I went to a couple local retailers and checked out the selection. After seeing the Envision a couple different places I felt better about it and purchased it from Amazon (better price than the stores I visited). I've had it two weeks now and I couldn't be happier. It's nothing too flashy but the picture looks good and it was easy to use. I didn't have any problems with funny lines or distortion at all. You can chalk me up as another satisfied customer.

Last year I bought an Envision LCD because it was by far the best deal available. To my surprise, it turned out not only to be a great value but it performed better than the "name brand" monitor I had at work. So this year when I needed a second monitor for my house I compared specs between Envision's 17" flat CRT and some other major brands. I was not surprised this time when I found they were all almost identical! Plus the Envision was $40 cheaper. I've had it for three weeks now and it's working great. Based on my experience, I would have no hesitation recommending Envision to anyone looking for a solid monitor.
