    Is there any valid data about the Display's value for graphics work?

    I'd like to decide between the M4600 IPS and WLED or maybe W520/8560w.

    There's only one review I found which shows the color spaces measured with a spectrometer or colorimeter, but none for the M4600's displays

    Looking at your pictures of the notebook next to a monitor made me realize how much I hate 16:9 again :rolleyes:
    What are the circular plugs/covers for at the bottom of the screen bezel on each side, my non RGB screen doesn't have those.
    Interesting comparison between the brightness levels

    About half the time I started up, I was getting AC adaptor error messages. I called up Dell earlier today and they sent out a new adapter that should get here tomorrow.

    Just received my M4600 and I'm noticing the screen is very dim, put it beside my M4500 and it's very noticable. I'm thinking to put a call into service to see about having it swapped out. Any suggestions?
