    Did you see that the new 9200 doesn't even have the WXUGA 1920 X 1200 screen as a upgrade, bigger by 1.6 inch diaginol screen but no bigger than SXVGA+ amount of pixels. There goes the Ultra Sharp screen Dell has been touting about, you can't a ultimate screen with a lower than top grade WXUGA pixel display!

    Does Dell think we are stupid morons that couldn't figure that one out, I have been into Home Theater since 1997. I had that made in less than a new york city minute, NYUK, NYUK, famous 3 stooges line lots of people still think it stands for New York but what it really stands for is New York University of Knucklheads. I ain't one of them, you need the 1920 x 1200 for Dell to call it a UltraSharp screen period![ :)]
