The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Hi all,

    I usually just lurk on this forum but I saw this particular topic discussed on AU forums but not here.

    Anyway, the Dell 1520 online docs says the following:
    http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins1520/en/om_en/html/specs.htm#wp1102222

    Soooo... an error in documentation? or a deliberate omission in the main site's product pages?

    Hmm...that'd be 18-bit color. Never seen any monitor with 18-bit color. I'd guess it is an error, though we'll have to wait till someone gets one to confirm this.
