ViewSonic launches new 17'' and 19'' displays

ViewSonic broadened its line of quality displays with the introduction of four new models to its VA Series of LCD displays. For prices as low as $239, the 17-inch VA702b and VA712b team with the 19-inch VA902b and VA912b to provide users with high-end features, such as 1280x1024 native resolutions, in a stylish black bezel design.

Targeted at the cost conscious enterprise and system integrator market, the VA Series delivers on ViewSonic's award-winning heritage through an ultra-slim bezel, rich colors, pinpoint sharpness and crisp images. ClearMotiv video response times as fast as 8 milliseconds enable smooth, broadcast-quality, full-motion video, while the OptiSync technology--integrated on the VA712b and VA912b--supports multiple inputs, including direct DVI signals for optimum source-to-display synchronization. By combining VESA wall mounts with AutoTune and OSD power lock/unlock features, the displays are designed to conserve desk space and maximize the viewing experience.

"The VA Series raises the bar for entry-level LCD displays," said Jeff Volpe, vice president of marketing, ViewSonic Corp. "By introducing affordable LCDs with features typically associated with more expensive, high-end displays, ViewSonic is making it possible for IT decision-makers and end users to enjoy the latest in display technology, while maintaining their budgets."
