New I take it that an 1800FP is better than an E173FP?
I have the latter on my desk at work. While it's not shite, my 4yo Sony VAIO has a distinctly better screen. A search at dell.com for 1800FP yields no results, BTW.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please

New Oh, much.
The E173B is $250 bargain-basement shite. Plus your Vaio has the disadvantage of Being A Vaio.

Dell seem to not do the 1800FP any more; when I bought my Dimension system last year, the 1800FP was a \ufffd500 option.

Here's a review with pics:

New Lousy comparison photos
They should put up some full-size screen captures so we can really compare the quality.
