    Agree! This is the native res for my 22 inch Samsung monitor and would like to keep it consistent for desktop arrangement. I was surprised too that it's not available.

    I wish it was easier to get a WUXGA screen... newegg doesn't even have one for under 24".

    Dell says no because the Macbook Pro has 1920x1200 native on their 17'' model.
