- You are making a huge oversight in that statement. The huge demand for 16:10 screens is obviously going to put them at a lower price than the 16:9's. Dell doesn't manufacture there own screens they buy from other companies who obviously will charge more for 16:9 because they have to stop producing 16:10 screens which they have perfected at manufacturing since they have been creating them for so long. For the 16:9 screens the manufacturers will need to create a whole new setup. Dell has created a good laptop and priced it competitively, it just remains to be seen if the masses will bite or continue purchasing $800 HP laptops because they don't care about style or raw processing power.
