    Its probably just 1600x1200, just like the 15 inchers. Some people are hawking 14 and 15 inchers that only do 1024x768. ugh!

    What' the point of 1600x1200 on a 15 inch screen? I have a 19 inch monitor at home and I never push it farther than 1280x960 because 1600x1200 is still too small for it to be readble. Especially if you spend any amount of time working with it on the road at all.
