Shame on you Dell!

Hello guys,

Check this news at DailyTech:

Some quotes:

"Dell, the undisputed LCD vendor for the US, took an unusual step backwards
today by announcing the 8ms UltraSharp 17" 1707FP and UltraSharp 19"
1907FP LCD displays. The displays both use 6-bit LCD panels capable of
262,000 colors per pixel with an 8ms gray to gray response time."

"Typically, Dell will use different components for different regions -- so the
UltraSharp 1907FP in Europe may be completely different than the UltraSharp
1907FP in the US."

take care!

6 bit? thats a TN panel then, and 263k colours???? what are they playing at?

They have the same spec as my phone :/

That's appalling

Their value range always used to be TN but their UltraSharp range used better panels (at least in the 19"). From the 8ms G2G PVA panel of the 1905 to this - what a drop!
