This isn't relevant.  I have an Inspiron 7500 and a Thinkpad T22, both
with 1400x1050 displays.  The graphics chips are different, and I can
confirm that I have the same kind of problems that Kevin describes
with the T22, but not with the Inspiron.  On the T22, I work around
the problem by not turning off the display.
