I have the same problems with the U2412M on my desk. Ultra sharp it is not! The U2412M gives me a headache. Text is noticibly blurry. I think it's the thick anti-glare coating and that it's stuck at 60 Hz.
What are you talking about? LCD/LED monitors are meant to function at 60Hz!
And btw, it is really Ultra Sharp. Can't believe how crisp the text is on mine. Have you tried hooking it up via the DVI port? Are you keeping it in its native resolution (1920x1200)?
Moonstorm, I checked two older 19' Dell LCD monitors here at the office. Both of them are 75 Hz at resolutions that the U2412M is only 60 Hz at. I won't go into details of other manufacturer's monitors that are personal property at home but they are 22' 16x10 monitors and they do have a higher refresh rate and cause less pain on my eyes.
I right now am displaying half of this note I am composing on a Dell 1907FPt and half on the U2412M and the lack of clarity on the U2412M is surprising. Whites look dingy somehow and the blacks almost look like they have a greyish overcast.

Post some side by side pictures of the laptop display and the U2412.

I have tried them all, including 1920x1200.
Yes, I have tried the DVI port. It looks no different, which really surprised me.
