I've had my E1505 with X1400 hooked up to a 2405FPW and it worked just fine at 1920x1200. I was surprised it looked so sharp with an analog VGA connection.

I understand the difference between interlaced and progressive, that's why I bothered to mention them in my previous post. I even remember when PC monitors used interlaced for some resolutions. I'm just saying that 1920x1080 is a...

No changes. As a matter of fact, I don't think you can make any changes to memory settings in the BIOS, it's not very tweakable.

That's odd, I thought Newegg carried 7200 RPM SATA notebook drives, but I don't see them either. Maybe they're out of them for now.

That looks like a pretty good price to me. I paid about the same for a lesser E1505 and was quite happy with my 40% discount.

You need 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM, either 533 or 667 MHz. Also non-ECC and unbuffered. Brand is your choice, I went with G.Skill at $35for 512 MB 533 MHz.

There are two official HDTV broadcast standards: progressive scanned 720p at 1280x720, and interlaced 1080i at 1920x1080. Most HDTV sets sold only meet the lower standard having a resolution of 1366x768. Why they don't go with an exact...

You definitely don't have to upgrade the memory when you go to the T2400. Dell sold me my E1505 with 667 MHz FSB with 533 MHz memory. Memory with a matching 667 MHz speed has a slight advantage, but my tests with borrowed 667 MHz memory...

Sounds good. You managed to defeat the Media Direct HPA! I'll probably hang on to mine. MediaDirect isn't all that usefull, but it's an amusing stupid trick my laptop can do.
