The 2005FPW is the one I'm considering. Dell has 20% off til Jan 18. Question: Does the screen have a matt finish or glossy. I dislike that etched matt finish; I think it decreases the brightness and sharpness. > I certainly don't regret buying it at all.

And now I have that :) I have a LinuxCertified laptop with a 17" widescreen at 1680x1050. I like it and haven't noticed any problems. Sounds great! Thanks a lot.
