ViewSonic Rolls Out 15" and 17" Multimedia Monitors With Built-In Speakers

WALNUT, Calif -- ViewSonic Corporation has just introduced their first
PerfectSound multimedia monitors, the ViewSonic 15GA and 17GA. High
fidelity, dome speakers are built into each side of the bezel. These
15-inch and 17-inch monitors (14.0" and 16.0" viewable diagonal areas,
respectively) have been specifically designed for multimedia applications
on the PC and Mac platforms.

With the speakers integrated into the bezel, the stereo sound is aimed
directly towards the user. Both the ViewSonic 15GA and 17GA include front
mounted volume and mute controls, as well as a built-in microphone,
headphone jack and external microphone port. Utilizing the power of the
latest dome speaker technology and microhole speaker grills integrated
into the monitor bezel, the speakers provide full, rich stereo sound.

In addition to speakers, these multimedia monitors feature Plug and Play+
(DDC1 and DDC2B) compatibility to support Microsoft Corporation's
Windows'95 operating system. With Plug and Play+, the monitors
automatically produce optimal viewing characteristics. Also, the ViewSonic
15GA and 17GA monitors have adopted the strict Swedish TCO standard for
reduction of heat emissions, power consumption and less exposure to
electromagnetic fields.

Other features of these high performance monitors include a Super Contrast
screen, a special ARAGX anti-reflection/anti-glare coating and an Invar
Shadow mask for sharper screen images. Plus, the updated OnView control
system permits the user to visually select and make screen adjustments.
Included within OnView are audio level indicators and ViewMatch color
tuning for modifying color to match printer or plotter output.

Displaying 1,024 x 768 pixels at an 86Hz refresh rate, with maximum
resolutions of 1,280 x 1,024, refresh rates as high as 160HZ and a super
fine dot pitch of 0.27mm, the user can be assured of a picture-perfect
image.

The MSRP of the ViewSonic 15GA is only $595 and the ViewSonic 17GA is $995.
Both monitors comply with the EPA's Energy Star program by powering down,
in three stages, to under 8 watts in "Off" mode.
