    Yeah usually unsharp images on LCDs are related to a couple things:

    1) Using VGA input/bad VGA cable
    2) Running at non-native resolutions
    3) bad display - I've read a few reviews stating their Dell LCD's were fuzzy and it was a manufacturing defect.

    If #1 and #2 don't fix it - then might be time to return it for another unit.

    I thought that too, maybe it was just the particular monitor I bought, but out of the box even when it was at the native res things in windows didn't look sharp, it looked like the monitor wasn't being run at the native res. But when I changed the sharpness setting everything was normal. I was surprised.
