I think the Gateway 9550 has the largest screen - 15.7". It usually comes
as 1280x1024, but some models have 1400x1050. The Dell 15" goes as high as
1600x1200. Those will be MIGHTY small icons.
Most of the Gateway 9500'S also have dual display mode - the external video
is actually a second display output, so you can run dual monitors on a
laptop! I don't think any of the Dell's have that. Some Sony's, Fujistu's
and HP's do. But their main LCD is 15".
