Outstanding product and service
The picture quality is exactly what you expect from Sony...outstanding. I purchased this monitor six months ago thru Amazon and have been very pleased with the display except for the screen turning off intermittantly(lasted a few seconds). Last week the monitor would not power on. I called the Sony toll free service number and four days later I received a replacement(factory refurbished) via UPS with a prepaid shipping lable for return of the defective unit. The new display looks and functions brand new. The warranty service provided was the best I have ever experienced.

My Experience
For the first three months, I was extremely happy with my purchase. The quality of screen display was excellent. Unfortunately, after 3 months of use, the monitor started randomly turning off and on during use. This could happen anytime and continue up to eight times in a row. I sent the monitor for warranty repair and was told that the main board needs to be replaced with a turnaround time of one week. It has been over three weeks and now I am informed that Sony had sent the wrong parts and I will have to wait. It is very annoying to pay a Sony price premium and experience the problems that I have encountered. Sony has lost the trust and custom of my family. You may wish to read the feedback of R.V.Hatcher who has experienced similar Sony monitor quality and service problems. His feedback can be found under the reviews for Sony SDMHS75/B 17" LCD Monitor (Black).

Great Buy
I am very satisfied with this monitor. It has a great picture and great style. Monitor tilts with ease. Takes up little space and looks great. Its not too small, yet not too big. Recommend!

Great LCD Monitor
I've been using this monitor for about 10 months now and have nothing bad to say about it. I've used its digital connection on a mid-range AGP Nvidia GeForce graphics card and had very nice performance, and "identical" performance using the analog connection to a low-end integrated ATI Radeon X200 adapter.
What makes this monitor different?:
(1) Its looks--you either like the different look or you don't.
(2) Its XBRITE "glossy" screen--I like the glossy screen, but I imagine some would not. To me, it adds a crispness and realism to the image that is not there on the run-of-the-mill monitor. The downside is that the screen is more prone to glare, so one must take care with placement of the monitor. That is, do not have the screen facing a window or bright lamp. I recommend checking out the monitor at a in-store display before buying so you can see the "glossy" effect for yourself.
(3) Its price--Sonys are expensive, but I think it is worth it as long as you plan to use it for a few years.

Wasn't Sure At First.... But Wow'd By Sony's HS75P/S !!!
I noticed this lcd monitor one morning at Best Buy and almost laughed it off. It looked a little strange next to the lg flatron monitors - It seemed as though Sony wasn't looking for the sleek / thin approach to lcd monitors. But after looking at serveral other brands and models at the store, I quickly noticed a huge difference in the screen of the Sony. First of all, I counted ZERO dead pixels. A few of the other models including the Westinghouse had 6+! Sony's X-Brite Technology is astonishing! While the lcd appears glossy, or "glary" once the monitor is turned on, it quickly dissapates providing a very crisp and bright display. Dispite Sony's attack at a more modern apperance, I was so pleased that i decided to purchase the HS75P/S. It truly is an amazing monitor and performs outstandingly! 17 inches is plently for surfing the web, games etc. And with this price - you can't go wrong! - Lance
