    15.4" wsxga Matte

    So I've been readingreadingreading... May I ask for confimation please!

    1-Is the following true for the wsxga or just the wuxga and if not, what is true? It seems that the Dell screens can be a problem - if you get the LG-Phillips you're good and if you get the Samsung you've got to keep returning it until you get an LG-Phillips. It seems from what I've read that the LG-Phllips is as good as you're going to get for photoshop in a laptop of this size.

    2-It seems that the Lenovo t61p wsxga screen is consistent, but in operation a litte less bright and etc. than the Dell when you've got a good Dell to compare it with.

    3-The HP85xxx is a competitor but always prices out so much higher than the t61p or dell 830. I wonder if it is reliably better to be worth the extra cost?

    THANK YOU.

    In general, I suppose the LG screen is the better bet, but not every single Samsung screen is grainy. Mine for instance isn't.

    Right, and not every LG screen is perfect either.

    Well, I know that not every LG screen is perfect, but in general, they seem to be the "better" LCD's.
