Yes, focus is easy and the results are gratifying.  I'd recommend a tune
up every 6-8 months.  Get a nonconducting monitor adjustment screwdriver.
Power the cube down and take the back panel off the monitor.  Reconnect
the monitor and power the cube back up.  You will see a variety of adjustment
holes clearly marked.  Focus is the one that works for me.  Its a snap.
Just don't ground yourself to the high voltage generated by the monitor
as premature aging can be observed as a result.
