It's been 12 years since I got my first PC. Back then, it came with a 14" 800x600 CRT monitor. But times change. Now, for just $250 you can get a 22" LCD monitor with a 1680x1050 resolution! Geeks.com were very kind to send us one of their LCD monitors, the Viewsonic VX2235wm, for a review. We tested the monitor under Windows, Linux and the Mac and here is what we found.

On Windows, I downloaded the latest driver version for this monitor from Viewsonic website and installed it. After it was done, the default monitor profile was changed by the driver, and it's now using the Viewsonic-recommended one. The only adjustments I had to make *before* I installed the driver was to just "auto calibrate" and this fixed the screen that was a tiny bit off (the colors were as accurate though). The monitor is at 6500k btw.
Ah nice, so with this brand a lot is done for you. If only that were true of all of them.
