    I was looking at the D820 Dell Latitude and I have two questions that I hope you are willing to help me out with.

    1) What does WUXGA actually look like on a 15" screen. Could someone take a picture relative to some text on a paper or something so I could get an idea of how tiny the fonts would be. Most probably interested in the WSXGA+ but just want to rule out the WUXGA for sure.

    2) Once Merom, etc. comes along, will the Dell be easily upgradeable? (I have heard that Merom will be pin-compatible with the Yonahs, not sure if this is true) I know some of the Asus machines make for convenient processor upgrades. How about the Dell?

    Thanks!
