    Of course they can't: dell is also a monitor seller. Why would they sell monitors from competitors?

    I can't understand why are you so mad. I mean it's business.

    On the other hand, lg's screen are not that good, so it's not a big issue.

    dell's screens. :p yup. HP's screens are good too. Same for Samsung.

    I'm not saying that lg is not good. LG is also good. However, LG is not the best and if you can't get a LG, there are other interesting options around.

    You have no idea what you are talking about.

    He's talking about the LCD for his M1730, as he blatantly states in the title. The screen in the laptop. Dell doesn't put "dell LCD's" in their laptops, they put LG, Samsung, etc etc in their laptops.

    Anyways... You can try to when you call or order, but if the laptop is already ordered, you can not modify it.
