Need 9200 screenshot
can anyone place an image of their 9200 UXGA screen (desktop view) here so the others can see what it looks like.
If you don't know how, it can be done like this: Ctrl+Prnt Scrn, then open Accessories/Paint, paste and save as "jpeg" file.
Thanks

I am having dificulties posting the jpeg file, but it would not do any good anyway. The image quality is great. It is the reflection coating on the 9200's 17" screen that degrades the image. It would look just like any other good quality image that you displayed on your UXGA equiped machine.246

It is definatly WUXGA at 1920 x 1200 It came with the dpi set to 125 % but I set it back to 96dpi and set the display up for Large Fonts.The screen shot looks a lot different when displayed on my Samsung 213T LCD than it does on the i9200. On the i9200 every thing is sharpbut there is that weird silvery sheen, especially on the realy light colors.Other than that, the machine is awsome. I have never seen a laptop run as cool as this one. After several hours it is barely warn to the touch.My i8000 would get so hot that it would almost burn you when you touched it anywhere near the hard drive.Hope the screenshot helped you.246

i had many dells in the past and i just sold my i8600 for a gateway M675X-C with the 17" WSXGA lcd and this screen looks awsome.. it does have that glosssy look like the sony"s but the screen is one of the best i've seen yet.. even PC World gave this screen very good reviews!! the glossy effect does not bother me when the screen is on, you can hardly see it but the clarity and the colors are very clear and bright.. playing farcry on this machine is a blast, and the graphics are the best i've ever seen.. i dont know what the lcd part number is for this screen but according to gateway sales rep the screen is made by toshiba.. i have to say they make a very good screen and i wish dell could stop going the cheap route and start using quality parts... this is a repeat of the early i8600's with the junk hitachi WSXGA screens, everybody was sending them back for refunds or exchanges because the picture quality was terrible... wish you guys good luck and make dell change those lcd's.. sceam loud enough and you will be heard!!! strength in numbers!!!SYS SPECS:P-4M 3.0 H/T 800MHZ FSB, 17" WSXGA 1680X1050, 1024MG MEMORY 400MHZ, ATI RADEON 9700 128MEG DDR VIDEO MEM AGP 8X, 60GHZ 7200RPM HDD, CDRW+DVD+RW DRIVE AND INTEL PRO 2100 MINI PCI WIRELESS..BENCHMARK: 3DMARK2001 NO OVERCLOCKING 1233687

Hi All,
I had my i9200 17" Display panel replaced today. The one that was removed was made by LG Phillips. The replacement is a Samsung. I am very pleased with it.
I did not use the phone... I used the e-mail support. I started it at 11:30am Sunday the 19th. The display was replaced today, the 21st at 11:30am by a very competent rep from Bantec.
I was offered a replacement "System" but I told them that sending a new system would be a waste of Dell's time and money unless it had a "different" display. They then offered to replace the display, i said OK because I then could make sure it was from a different manufacturer or at least a different lot number. 48 hours from begining to end. Service that is pretty hard to beat.
I am again impressed with Dell's customer support.
