This monitor is in constant use since year 2000 and is still working fine.
I am completely satisfied with it. Some of my relatives suggested that I junk it and buy an LCD one but I find no reason for doing that I replied to them that I will change over to a LCD monitor once this one conks out but this one refuses to fail even after 15 years.
I most times use it at 1024x768 resolution(60Hz). I did not choose it and it came as part of a built-up computer from a dealer so cannot say what it cost me.Never needed service so cannot rate it.
