BTW, if you want to speak to someone at Dell in the USA try calling the regular Dell phone number and press the option # for "Sales." When you get a salesperson on the phone explain your problem (in the most cordial, respectful, gentle, earnest and deeply troubled voice) and they'll help you or...
It's listed under "Browse Products" for LCDs in the category "wide aspect" instead of 20"

For some reason Dell wanted to separate it out from their 20" offering, the 2001FP, which is the model I wound up keeping after sending back...
Halcy - I don't know what to tell you except that if you pay $900 for the Samsung 21" widescreen you can amortize the cost over the next 3 to 4 years you use it and have total peace of mind and pleasure from working on a good quality widescreen. I think after trying 4 2005FPWs and having them...
Halcy-
If you aren't "stuck" on a widescreen see if you can get them to send you the 2001FP instead. The one I got a few days ago is absolutely perfect. No bad pixels or back-light issues. It came packed fresh from the factory in pristine, virginal condition. The 2005FPW I sent back (because...
I RECANT MY COMMENTS ABOUT DELL! THERE ARE SOME TRULY GOOD SOULS IN THE CUSTOMER CARE DEPT!
Sadhu, simply put - you saved me. I tried again today and reached an angel of a customer support person at Dell who bent over backwards to accommodate me. I am now waiting for DHL to pick up the...
SERIOUS WORD OF WARNING! BUYER BEWARE - OF DELL!
DELL was once a company I trusted, back in the 30 day money back guarantee days. Now I feel taken, tricked and ripped off by them. I tired to return my 2005FPW for a refund thinking that the 21 day return policy started from the day you...
I got my 2005FPW at the beginning of the month and I'm sending it back because of the usual unacceptable backlight problem but I'm not getting another one because the 2001FP I got a few days ago is the most perfect LCD monitor I've ever had. No backlight problem and no bad pixels. Actually no...
ScottFern - that's exactly what my 2005FPW looks like! I'm waiting for the delivery of a 2001FP to see if it's any better.
Sadhu - The other reason why the type might look bad on the Mac screen is because of a thing called type smoothing. I don't know if OSX has it but OS 9 did and it makes...
Sadu-
Thanks for your feedback. I can't afford to keep both monitors and in addition my NVidia card has one analog and one digital output. I would never run one of these monitors on an anolog signal and in addition to the cost of a second monior, I'd have to buy a new video card.
I am...
Sadhu -
I am curious if you have the backlighting problem in either of your Dell 20" LCD monitors. I am new to this forum - I found it in my search for reviews on the 2005FPW. During the Dell sale last week, I ordered both the 2001FP and the 2005FPW in order to see which one I liked better. I...
