Yes!  I have a very nice video card (GEForce 7600 GT) and it has 
adjustments for brightness, contrast, gamma and more.  I messed with that 
a little, messed with the monitor settings a little, and I was able to get 
it pretty close to the Viewsonic.

So now I have to update my review of the Hanns and say that it doesn't 
have as many adjustment options as some monitors, but with DVI and a good 
video card, you can get a lot out of it.

It's always a trick to figure out how to get the right colors.  How can I 
tell that I've nailed it?  Is there a standard way of testing?  I guess I 
just have to rely on my feel for it.

It's really great to see the price coming down on these things.  Someday 
everyone I work with will have nice DVI display and I won't get headaches 
ever again!

Mike
