    Dell's D620 display is a standard 14.1" WXGA resolution (1280x800) whilst Thinkpad Z60m I'm eyeing is 15.4" also 1280x800. Obviously, Dell's display sports higher resolution physically, but is Z60m's TFT looks worse then Dell's in reality ?
    Is it somewhat blured (on text) comparative to Dell's ? Is D620's TFTF better in general then that of Z60m ?
    Unfortunately cannot compare in person (both of these models aren't on display in my country at all - orders only), so have to trust your opinions.

    Thanks in advance, Alex

    Though I personally have not seen it, I have heard the d620 suffers from the sparkle affect. Might want to search the Dell forum for it. The Z60 is decent. Nothing to write home about.
