The lack of a DVI output is a huge problem. I just bought a 30" monitor and was astounded to discover my old Inspiron 9400 will hook up to it, but not the newer Vistro 1700.

It's pretty sad when the latest and greatest is using old technology. I will not recommend any Vostro's anymore.

i just got my Vostro 1500 (in the Netherlands), ordered it 29-11-07 and i also got a AUO 2077 15.4 inch. It looks grainy and the brightness is bad. When I ordered the laptop I told them that I wanted a LG or Samsung LCD. They said that it's wouldn't come with a AUO display but it did. I'm now waiting for an answer of the Dell technical support.

Bought Vostro 1500 and delivered last week.

Great machine. Most of reviews over CNET, etc fairly reflected, eg. machine getting heated easily.

Quite unhappy that Dell's site (Malaysia) do not supply accessories for this - particularly the power adapter and battery. I had to order my spare adapter through making phone call to Dell's call centre and got a faxed order to purchase, rather than online. Now considering a secondary battery but it is nowhere to be found online.

Is Vostro brand not fully supported by Dell?

During delivery time, (over last weekend), I could no longer track the delivery online - Dell (Malaysia)'s website had gone 'mad'. Called and left voice message on Friday (before the work day ends) with the sales staff who attended my purchase but got no reply and finally delivery came on Monday 5pm. In between, was totally kept in the dark by Dell.

Please improve your website & delivery system, Dell.

I've got a Vostro 1500 with a WXGA+ Display and this is "grainy", not as bright as Dell confirmes on the Vostro Page and the overall image quality is not good (white is more a grey)!

Its an AUO 2077 from 1/2006 and i found out, that every AUO 2077 from 1/2006 has that problem
.

So, is it true, that all new Vostro 15000 with a WXGA+ display wont be a AUO 2077?

Dell tried to change my display, but come over with the same bad AUO 2077 - so what can i do, to get a good LG 7 Philips display?

Thanks for an answer

I have a Vostro 1500 and the missing DVI port was something I didn't really think I cared about until I bought a 22" widescreen LCD monitor. The video doesn't look very good on this monitor -- particularly with a full screen white window. There are variances in the white depending on where you look on the screen and the colors are a bit washed out.

Initially, I thought it was a bad monitor and was going to return it. Then, I tried hooking it up to my older desktop computer using the DVI connector (since it had one) instead of the VGA. Night and day difference. I always thought digital would be better, but not THAT much better. It might be something to do with the 1680x1050 resolution being carried over an analog connection too. Or, maybe the monitor I purchased just doesn't handle the VGA as well as it does the digital... Either way, I wish I could hook it up digitally to my Vostro.

I thought there was still hope the other day when I learned that I could buy a docking station for my HP laptop that I use at work that actually had a DVI output on it. That's when I learned there were no docking stations or port replicators available for the Vostro -- Upon looking behind and beneath my Vostro, there isn't even a dock connector anywhere for future support.

Anyway, the Vostro is a great machine overall, but I'm really wishing it had some means of getting digital video output.
