I came across this interesting posting and was curious to find out more.
You should be able to find your answer(s) on the Dell website under Support
and their Community Forum. And search for these:
(1) fuzzy images and font
(2) jagged or blurry fonts images
Also look up Dell documents FA1086442 and FA1084811 from their site search.
Those same articles may also help for those with high resolution LCDs.
Hope that helps.
