Dell Inspiron 600m 14.1 XGA vs. SXGA screen...
Posted by David Corsi on August 23rd, 2003


I might get a 600m... what screen should I get, the XGA or SXGA 14.1 screen?
I use a 1028x768 XGA screen on a Toshiba right now... I have wonder if I
would like even smaller text etc. on a new screen?


What do you all think of SXGA on a 14.1 inch screen and furthermore what
about brightness and clarity of the SXGA vs. XGA screen on the Dell 600m?
The site says the SXGA has 150 luminance vs. 130 for the XGA so I assume
that is a nice way of saying the SXGA looks brighter and nicer than the XGA
besides being more detailed.

You'll love SXGA or SXGA+ on a 14" screen. And you will never go back.

When you get your new machine, go into the Display control panel, Settings
tab, Advanced button, and change it from the default 96 DPI to 120 DPI. It
will need to reboot to use the new setting. Then go into the Appearance tab,
Advanced button and customize the various fonts to your taste. (I recommend
Verdana for everything--it's the easiest to read of all the fonts.) Also be
*sure* to click the Effects button and turn ClearType on. (I'm assuming you
are getting Windows XP.)

You will be astounded by the text quality these tweaks give you.
