    2005fpw Faint Verticle Line Problem

    Myrcgarage, did you set the resolution to 1280x1024 because the laptop won't go higher? Thats my guess why you tested at non-native resolution. Anyway, I'll post my observations after I test my displays tomorrow night.

    I never waste my time trying get stuff from them on the phone. Just email...its the the best way I think. You will still get Indian reps but you don't have struggle trying to speak with them. And for those of you that complain about them giving you American names...well why don't you try...

    Man that sucks. I feel for you. Mine was expected to ship today and I just got notification that it has been shipped. If I were you I'd reply to that Delay notification email and complain. The LEAST you will get out of it is free Next Day Shipping and a $35 concession coupon. I complained...

    Got one at $420 after taxes. Can't complain about tax...its only $30. Before I quit smokin weed and drinkin, I would've spent that in a night. Thanks Anandtech forums for swaying my decision from 1905FP to 2005FPW...at a cost of $100 though.

    Attention Dell 1704FPV owners

    Welcome to Anandtech Forums! Great first post. Thats good to see the 1704fpv's are using Samsung PVA panels. Unlike with the 1905fp (either samsung or AUO panels)...you know what you are getting.

    Just received a new Dell 1905FP. What a disappointment...

    Why not go for Dell 1704FPV if you are going to downsize? Anyone have experience with that monitor? How is it for gaming? What panel is in there? CWF
