Take a look at this Dell Web page for the Dell 22" Crystal monitor. I have to say that I really like it for its slim and transparent design, and because it has speakers included so I would not have to buy them separately.
BUT I WILL NOT BUY IT, because you do not offer a 1920x1200 screen resolution on it! I also will not buy it because I am forced into getting an integrated webcam with it, I will not use it, and I will not pay for what I will not use!
And about the screen resolution, Dell offers a 1920x1200 screen resolution on its 17" notebook displays (the Vostro 1700, whose display options are on the end of the page, is a 17" notebook, and on that page "WUXGA" means 1920x1200).
And yet for some reason Dell offers only a 1440x900 screen resolution on its 17" desktop displays (they offer 1920x1200 only on the monitors that measure 24" or greater).
So Dell thinks that desktop users have less vision than notebook users? Or Dell thinks that I sit close to my notebooks, but not to desktop monitors? I can tell you that the answer to both of the previous questions is no! I use both desktops and notebooks and of course my vision is the same, no matter which of those I might be using at a given instant. And I sit close BOTH to notebooks AND to desktop monitors.
If Dell can offer 1920x1200 on its 17" notebook displays, then they can definitely do the same for 17" desktop displays.
And why so you offer the Crystal monitor only in the 22" screen size? I would like to see other screen size options as well.
And finally, if you can offer integrated speakers on the Crystal monitor, then you can do the same for their other monitors.
So what are the ideas?
1. Offer a 1920x1200 screen resolution on all of your widescreen monitors that measure 17" or greater in screen size, and not only those that measure 24" or greater.
2. Let us opt out of getting the integrated webcam on the Crystal monitor.
3. Offer the Crystal monitor in more screen sizes. Keep your current 22" model, and add to your Crystal line of monitors greater screen sizes (24", 27", 30") as well as smaller screen sizes (17", 19", 20").
4. Offer integrated speakers on all monitors, and not just the Crystal monitor.
And by the way, this idea is partly related to an earlier one of my ideas, but this is not an exact duplicate of that idea. For whereas that idea talks specifically about screen resolution, this idea covers much more monitor issues than that.
