Laptop Screens

[mhorn]

I just heard from a Dell rep that the RGBLED for the XPS 16 most likely will not be coming back out. I'm looking to pick up a new laptop in the next month or so and screen image quality is important to me since I do a lot of Photo color correction work. What laptops should I be considering if the RGBLED screen really is discontinued?

That monstrous Lenovo with the 17" screen and the extra popout screen and built in wacom digitizer on the palmrest has a pretty good screen I hear.

I mean, 16" is not exactly the most portable thing in the world, why not get a smaller laptop with an acceptable screen that you can then hook up to a big, great screen?

Thanks for the input. I'll take a look at the Lenovo. I'm probably going to stick with a laptop that has a 15" to 16" screen though since 17" and higher tend to be too heavy to carry around and hooking up my laptop to a second screen isn't really an option since I'd have to carry the second screen on the road with me as well and that doesn't seem to make much sense.

Any one else have any suggestions?

Dell has RGBLED screens on their Studio 17 line right now, though I personally don't want to go that big.
It's a shame they've pulled out the one screen that had gotten some praise here (XPS 16 RGBLED) - although I wouldn't buy it, 1080p on a 15.6 is kind of too high a resolution for me, I've seen the 900p model, and it's already borderline for me at that size...
