Has anyone had any experience with the Gateway FPD2185W 21" Widescreen LCD Flat-Panel Display? This particular model is not listed in any of the comparison guides.

I've read a few good reviews on this monitor, but the reviewers seemed to focus on its video and gaming capabilitie. Is anyone uising it for photo editing purposes?

Price at the local Best Buy is $700 Cdn, about $600 US.

Thanks... Sangio
 
Customer service. Have you tried using your customer service, I had my new FPD2185W monitor go out on me yesterday. I called at 10:30 am and talked to your service rep Marsha, very nice guy but did not have a clue on how to repair or trouble shoot a damn thing. After 1 hour with him he transferred me to another person, NOT!!! I was put on hold and then disconnected after another 25 minutes of waiting. I returned the call and talked to another rep went through the whole damn process again and Freddie didn’t have a clue after an hour I asked to speak to a supervisor, was put on hold and again after 15 minutes I was disconnected. I called back and reached a person who said I have been calling the wrong number and gave me a new number to call. The number I was given is on the top of my receipt, why give me a number that is the wrong number? I called again, I now have almost 3 hour invested and no luck, I get the next support agent and we spend 2 hours and 35 minutes on the telephone doing the exact same thing I have done with the other customer service reps. He gives me a service number 2-2114833XXX, I called this morning I wait 14 minutes ask to speak to a supervisor and again I was disconnected, I have been on hold now for 15 minutes and still no service representative. I have 4 of your computers and I can guarantee that my next purchase will not be a Gateway. Back to my problem about my monitor nobody knows how to reload the monitor to make it work in VGA or DVI. I go on the internet do a search and there are pages of people having the same problem as I am having and yet your support has no idea what is going on, WHY? I am now up to 22 minutes and counting of waiting to speak to a rep. What kind of company are you running? Are you not interested in any customer satisfaction? 10 days later and no response from Gateway and I have the 3 year onsite warranty--worthless
 
selling it for $500 usd at the website
 
The problems that some have noted appear to be a result of not reading the manual.
