It also works fine with the Nvidia GeForce2 shipped with my Inspiron
8000. I'am really happy with the 1400x1050 resolution fitting in a
15" screen while being fully legible (more than 1600x1200 on a
high-end 22" CRT monitor).
The Inspiron also can stretch its display to make it fit the screen.
It is quite awful for 1280x1024 (very sad aliasing), but nice for
1024x768.
