found a laptop with 1920x1200 resolution on a 15" monitor now that would be unreadable text

This stuff is true about the resolutions, but wouldnt it be possible to switch to a lower res?

not easily as the native resolution has the best image quality the non-native resolutions lead to discrepancies

Don't know what discrepancies means but he's right, monitors look best on the native res.

Oh i didnt realize u were talking about widescreen, couldnt u set that to another 16:10 res. instead of stretching 1280x1024, that must look FUGLY.
