Bring Back a 15.4" 1920X1200 Inspiron

Inspiron products submitted by rockettech 05/25/07

Bring back a high-resolution 15.4" display coupled with a top-end video card. The Latitude D830 has a 15.4" 1920X1200 display but offers Intel integrated graphics only. The Precision M65 is not mainstream and comes with limited options while it is very expensive. I think a 15.4" 1920X12" laptop display would have great appeal to developers, graphic artists, hi-def video users and creators, and multi-taskers. The work area is huge, but still in a manageable and portable size. Don't forget to put a DVI video connector instead of VGA as well. 4 Comments »

DUAL DVI ON LAPTOP & PORT REPLICATOR

Monitors and Displays, Laptops submitted by jsun9 02/24/07

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON FOR A VGA PORT ON LAPTOPS AND PORT REPLICATORS.

The laptop/replicator should come with two (2) DVI ports and the ability to add an adapter for VGA (DVI to VGA).

The dual DVI should allow for dual monitors and larger 30" monitors. 2 Comments »

DVI or HDMI out on all laptops models?

Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Laptops submitted by tommarnk 07/06/07 **PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED**

this would be a big jump, if dell add "DVI out" on all dell laptops, so people can connect to there LCD Displays or LCD HDTVs natively

the picture quality will be grealy improved

this should be easy to do as most of new chipsets has dvi out

not many laptop manufacturers add "dvi out" to there lower end products, so it might be a wise move to do so

all LCD monitors and lcd hdtvs has dvi or hdmi in so it might work well

and meybe remove the old VGA out and put a singel DVI-I, it can be used as analog (VGA) to, by using VGA-to-DVI-I adapter like tose used on

standard computer graphic cards for years now

many people like me connect monitor via dvi or hdmi to get the best picture and color quality



The offerings for the XPS M1730: Dual-link DVI-I (support for 30-inch displays) and HDMI via DVI adapter. Check out all the specs for the new systems.

Make External Video DVI

Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Laptops submitted by rockettech 05/03/07

Simply put, delete the VGA external video on all but bare-bones models and use DVI for external video. DVI can always be adapted to VGA, but not vice-versa. DVI can also be used to breakout to composite and component video. There is alot more flexibility with a DVI connector. And don't you dare use a proprietary connector on the notebook that requires an adapter, like the Apple iBooks and MacBooks. 15 Comments »

DVI ports on notebooks and tablets

Laptops submitted by sjss 02/21/07

With modern monitors and equipment shifting more and more towards DVI connections, and the fact that a DVI to VGA convertor is trivially obtained, but there are no VGA to DVI convertors easily obtainable, it makes sense to move notebooks to DVI. Those with VGA monitors can still easily connect them to their monitors, and those with DVI monitors will be able to use their monitors as well. 5 Comments »

DVI for Notebooks

Sales Strategies, Laptops submitted by dellmanfred 02/20/07

I cannot understand why we still have to be punished with these vga plugs build into notebooks. Who's actually buying a CRT monitor these days so that he/she would need a vga plug?!?!
On top of that it must be cheaper too to have a straight digital ouptut without a D/A converter. So please, get rid of the vga plug and put a proper DVI plug into your notebooks. For the sake of our eyes!!!! 10 Comments »
