    Anyone here have any leads on a confirmed 7805 with a 1920x1200 screen in the Atlanta area?
    Maybe you bought one and checked and they had others. Maybe you have a buddy that works at Best Buy that would help me out.
    Any help is very appreciated. Thanks.

    I doubt that you will get a 7805 with WUXGA screen anymore anywhere. Best Buys updated their database a while back after some mistakes. The only way to be sure is to confirm at the time of ordering.

    cheers ...

    I don't understand why BB updating their data base would make any difference to whether Gateway continues to ship with mixed screens or with different brands of HDs.

    I don't understand why all of you guys are wasting so much time on such a thing when you can buy a 7801u for the same price!

    I know that the best buy in Rockford IL still has about 3 of the 1900x1200s, so you might stand a chance at getting one near you.

    Some people like buying things locally.
