Why do you offer THREE 15.4" Vostros, but not even ONE 14.1"??

I am disappointed that Dell no longer offers this very common screen size on what would otherwise be one of the best notebook lines, and that they replaced it with a 13.3" one.

I have compared 14.1" to both 15.4" and 13.3", and 14.1" is far better than both

Please Dell, offer a 14.1" Vostro notebook PC again. I do not want to be forced into buying another notebook line to get a 14.1" screen size.

Yes I know that this is a duplicate, even of my own idea, but I want a Vostro, and it must be a 14.1".

And if you demote this idea I expect a good reason why.

    Hello,
    I'm a big fan of the old vostro 1400 and I would love to see it make a comeback with the new form factor i.e. a vostro 1410. The only drawback of the 1400 in my humble opinion was the look and I think the sharp edges of the new vostro line rectify that.
    For a lot of us, 15" is too large and bulky and 13" is too small and expensive; 14" is just right both size-wise and price-wise.
    Also, the new A840 targeting developing countries is extremely ugly;  people in developing countries appreciate aesthetics too! :)

    Dell, can you at least tell us WHY you do not want to offer a 14.1" HERE IN THE US?

    Well, that's why it's partial. Anyway, I demoted because I think that the 2'' stepping in monitor sizes is good enough. And as jervis said, it's probably cheaper for Dell to buy less kinds of screens, especially as 14.1'' monitors are becoming less common.

    Besides, this "partial implementation" is useless to me since I do not live in a developing country.

    I realize the idea I just merged was submitted before the one it was merged with; however, since they were both submitted by winoffice and I had already marked the one as Partially Implemented, I just merged it here :)
