Staples "technical details" section says this:

  HD Widescreen CineCrystal™ LED-backlit LCD Display (1366 x 768)
  Intel HD Graphics chip
  128MB Video Graphics Memory

So it's not a huge display (either in physical size or in pixel real-estate) but for the price, it's acceptable.

However, the reports of firmware problems, mentioned by others in thisthread, are worrisome...
