    I'm am about to get a Vostro 1400 or 1500. However, I am hearing in these forums that some of the screens are not very good, and that the vertical viewing angle is horrible. If I get a 1400 it will be WXGA, and if I get a 1500 it will be WXGA+. Can you tell me if these screens are okay or not?

    Thanks

    My previous SEC (Samsung) screen had some very poor vertical and horizontal viewing angles.

    Replaced now with an AUO screen which is terrible in other aspects...but that's a different story...
