I had my Dell Inspiron 8200 nicked by a burglar 3 weeks ago.

It had the following spec.

P4 2.0Ghz
15" UXGA Screen - 1600 x 1200
64MB ATI Radeon 9000 gpu
60gb Hard Disk

I hve been offered a Dell D830
Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 (2.0GHz/2MB/800MHz)
15.4" WXGA (1280 x 800) UltraSharp
80gb Hard Disk

My original was over £1600 new, i am fully aware that it is unlikely that i will get a similar value laptop but the new models screen size is paltry compared to the original.

Are there any other laptops around that have a similar resolution to my original or should i just accept what i have been offered.

Any ideas would be great.
 
Thanks for your comments.

I have got them to upgrade it to a 1920 x 1200 widescreen UKGA screen, they will not budge on the off board GPU though.

Apparently the onboard intel gpu is very good. Is it??
 
I have come back at them on the basis that i had 1gb of RAM previously and a dedicated graphics card. I made the point that a on board card uses the system RAM therefore i am worse off. They were not to chuffed but its a valid point.
