    I was so happy that my new computer arrived yesterday.. and had high expectations.. but I'm so disappointed!

    You know something is not right - when you think your old computer is better...

    Current computer is a 3 yr old XPS 1710

    I loaded up the Studio 17 with everything I could, as $$ wasn't an issue. I wanted a 17" screen, comparable to my XPS 1710.

    The new Studio's colors on the monitor are very washed out... but the another main reason it is going back is that it keeps on crashing when I go to Facebook and play Farmville! I tried a couple different browsers and tried last night and again today - same issues.

    I really am unhappy with the washed out colors of the monitor... now I'm not sure what computer I should buy!

    Please don't cross post. You already have a thread like this in Studio/Inspiron.
