2 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY SCEPTRE PRODUCTS ANY MORE.......2004-06-13

I bought Sceptre product and the quality was not I expected. I contacted their tech support, the customer service was not friendly and not professional.

3 out of 5 stars Price is great..... BUT.............2003-12-28

We absolutely CANNOT get this thing to focus properly. We're not computer experts, however, we are handy w/a computer, and have technological common sense... so you would be remiss to dismiss our opinion as that of the "Joe Next Door" computer owner.

We have followed the directions and trouble shooting directions TO THE "T".... but the only results we can get is a partially in focus/partially out of focus view. If you manage to remove the horizontal and verticial lines so that none appear, as advised in the manual, it still leaves portions of the screen out of focus, so you have to settle on the "lesser of two evils" (which is less important to have in focus).

We've already returned one....and have the same problem with the second one.

We plan on contacting the maker to see if they can offer any better advise than what their manual offers - if we have any luck, we'll gladly edit our opinion to reflect the outcome of our efforts.

Sometimes you just get what you pay for, and that's the bottom line.
