Top comment 'This replaces a Vizio 24' tv/monitor on my mac mini and I like it much better, it provides a great picture without the glare that the Vizio caused so if you want a monitor that isn't as harsh this is a great buy.If I were a Mac/PC gamer, I'd opt for a better gaming monitor, but for business, production, and light gaming, it does what I need it to do, it's vibrant, and can be.
