    I've got a DV2800 on last sunday, this laptop is perrty good :) , the sound and keyboard are all so satisfied.
    But the LCD isnt comfortable. After using half an hour to one hour my eyes so tired.
    So I want to know whether anybody else have the same problem :confused:

    Are you using it at the correct resolution? LCDs become fuzzy when used at a resolution which is different to the number of pixels. I think the dv2800 has 1280 x 800, but the easiest way to check is to make sure that the slider in the display properties is at the right end of the scale.

    Set your resolution to 1280x800

    If you have an Nvidia card, go to the nvidia control panel and toggle around with the color settings to reduce eye strain
