    CNET Review

    July 21, 2009

    The Good: The ViewSonic VG2427wm includes a decent host of ergonomic options, three USB ports, and great game and movie performance.

    The Bad: The ViewSonic VG2427wm's chassis feels hollow and fragile; its OSD lacks useful options like presets.

    The Bottom Line: The ViewSonic VG2427wm has a good assortment of ergonomic options and great performance, but its asking price is just a bit too high to recommend.

    Review Summary: The ViewSonic VG2427wm would make a good choice for users who need a big screen for text-intensive work, but the less-than-totally-smooth video playback and the lack of an HDMI-in port may disappoint for gamers and movie watchers.
