Considering Macbook Air 11" as primary computer

Hey, guys. I'm sure you get this question all the time--and I have read into number of threads on this myself--but I still have a few questions about my particular situation I'm hoping I could get answered by some kind souls!!
I'm a 13" 2008 Macbook owner that I would like to upgrade to a new Mac. My Macbook's basic specs are this: 13", 2GB RAM, 2.4ghz processor, with OS X 10.5.8. I'm close to pulling the trigger on the MBA 11" and intend on using it as my primary computer. The MBA 11" I would be getting would have 8GB RAM, 2.0 ghz with 3.2ghz turbo boost. Will I notice a jump in speed, or will it stay relatively the same? The reason why I ask this is because I will actually be going down from 2.4ghz to 2.0ghz... RAM size, of course, will be greatly increased.
I don't usually put my current 2008 Macbook through very intense tasks. I'm assuming I'll have more than enough power in the MBA for what I'll be doing, but as I'm sure you understand I'd like to make sure before I shell out $1500 for it. So, I use my 2008 Macbook for web browsing (multiple windows and tabs), HD video streaming and playback, listening to music, word processing, organizing photos on iPhoto, airplay with Apple TV to my TV, etc--nothing very demanding of the computer, right? Basically I just want to be sure that this computer will play HD videos without being choppy and open and run all these programs quickly and without delay as my 2008 Macbook is starting to do. Best case scenario is I have more than enough power for all of these tasks, so let me know!!
What I like about the MBA ultra-portability factor, where I can whip out a device with a full-sized keyboard and type out a lot faster than I ever could on a more portable iPhone or iPad. I understand I'll be sacrificing power--but if the 11" MBA can handle all the tasks I do already with ease, I'll be fine.
I will be using it at home a lot as well, and may possibly get Apple TV to have everything on the larger screen. Hard drive space isn't a big deal for me.
Finally, will the drop from 13" to 11" be a very big deal? I have seen the 11" in person, and while it does look quite small indeed, I am not turned off by "small" as most of the people I have asked for advice seem to be. However, if someone can put in their two cents in on extended use with the 11" inch screen, that would be great. I think it wouldn't be a problem for me, but any advice from someone who uses one would be great.
Any other words of advice you feel important enough to share would be greatly appreciated as well. Thanks a ton guys!!

Just for clarification, all size hard drives (128, 256, and 512) are all SSD right?
After this thread, and a couple of other threads such as these:
Anyone here using their 11" Air as their primary computer?
Has the Air become your primary computer?
Core i5 Macbook Airs approach perfection
(written for the 2011 models)
I'm leaning heavily towards the 11" MBA fully loaded (8GB, 2.0ghz minus the larger hard drive... keeping it at 128gb).
Thanks for all the great answers guys. If anybody else has their two cents to add in, it would be greatly appreciated.

Bought a new macbook air because my old computer is formatted. I want to sync my iphone to my new mac, so I can save the data on my iphone without losing data. how can I do?

bought a new macbook air because my old computer is formatted. I want to sync my iphone to my new mac, so I can save the data on my iphone without losing data. how can I do?

You need to copy everything form your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. it simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.

When I plug in my iphone to my macbook air it says the computer is not granted to take the iphone information

Hi
When I plug in my iphone to my macbook air it says the computer is not granted to take the iphone information. So I haven t been able to import the iphone information (like photos) to my laptop.
This is the first time it happened to me, because last week I could done that.
Could anyone help me please fixing this issue?
Thanks.

Try unplugging any other USB devices. If you are using a hub, don't, connect the phone directly to a computer USB port.
None of these are necessarily things you should do, but might help. For instance, if you plug the phone to an already busy hub, the phone might be "the straw that broke the camel's back" and lock out the hub.

How do I actually use a MacBook Air as a second computer

Hi all,
I'm very tempted by the latest MacBook Airs. I'm considering getting one for on the road and around the house, while keeping my iMac as my 'main' computer. However, I'm wondering, how this would actually work and was wondering if someone could give me some pointers or ideas for strategies to follow. Specifically, I'm wondering about the following things.
1. iPhoto: my main iPhoto library would be on my iMac. But if I was travelling, say, with only the MacBook Air and I wanted to transfer the photos from my camera to the MacBook Air and then delete the photos from my camera, once I returned home, how would I then transfer the photos (quickly and seamlessly if possible) to my iMac? Would I have to export them first to a shared drive, shared folder, or DropBox folder for example, and then import them onto my iMac's iPhoto library? Ideally, what I would want is some way to wireless sync (automatically) between my MacBook Air and iMac, a little like an iPhone sync.
2. iTunes: if I wanted to load my MacBook Air up with some music or say videos which currently reside on my iMac, how would I do that? Again would it have to be a manual export somehow?
Maybe some of these issues will be resolved once iCloud arrives. Want I want if at all possible to avoid is manually connecting and disconnecting hard drives — I've had bad experiences with that in the past when used with portable devices (corrupted databases, lost files, etc.)
For mail / safari / calendars etc., I'm fine (I already have a mobile me account and it works perfectly making it easy to work on different computers). DropBox and Evernote handle the rest so my main question really revolves around media.
Any help, pointers or just links to places where this has already been discussed, greatly appreciated!
Many thanks,
David

You are going to NEED external hard drives regardless, period.
for data storage, data backups and HUGE media files, of pics / vids/ audio
There is no way around it,
As for the Air, I own or owned every Mac, its my favorite Apple product out of 6 Macs I currently own.

If I delete a folder from my MacBook Air after backing my computer up with TimeMachine, will the folder and its contents stay on the external drive the next time I back up my computer?

It's my understanding that TimeMachine intelligently backups computer system onto an external hard drive and keeps the backup up to date. Currently my MacBook Air is almost out of memory, so I was hoping to move all of my pictures and music to an external hard drive via TimeMachine and then delete the files from my laptop. As TimeMachine continues to backup my computer over the weeks and months after, will it see that the files are no longer on my computer and then delete them from my hard drive? I just don't want to lose the music and pictures I'm deleting in order to make more room.

Time Machine won't delete them from the backup drive until it runs out of space, but other things can. Put them on a second external drive and set Time Machine to back it up as well.

Photographer considering Macbook Air purchase

Currently use a Macbook Pro 17" in the studio and 13" Aluminum Macbook for travel. Have a project coming up where carrying a notebook simply wouldn't be prudent.
Was originally considering an iPad as a means to attach digital still and video cameras, perform very basic edits, and upload images someplace. Now thinking the Macbook Air is a much more practical solution providing a better balance between small size/ruggedness, and processing power.
Realize the Macbook Air will not do a great job running Photoshop, but I notice the Apple website offers Aperture as a pre-installed option. Anyone have experience running Lightroom on a Macbook Air?

I had the very same thoughts last Autumn, Inte - I am a Photographer, and wanted finally the ability to edit and work on photos when away from home and not have to wait until I was back to my iMac.
The iPad was the direction I was leaning, for it's small, light portability, very good screen, price point... but in the end, it just had too many limitations - namely being, what I wanted it for: Editing of my images, which would be NEF RAW, and no serious iPad photography app for iOS.
So, even though it was considerably more expensive, got the 13" MacBook Air, with 4GB of RAM, just the standard 128GB SSD, and couldn't be happier. It's still lightweight, small (I got the LowePro Stealth Reporter D550 AW camera bag, and can fit the Air, my D700, three lenses, with still room for more, and it doesn't break my shoulder).
And like the first response from HawleyRW, the Air is pretty near as powerful as it's big brother MacBook Pro siblings - I run and use Aperture (with the entire collection suite of Nik Software plug-ins), as well as PhotoShop Elements, and have not had any problem doing so with any of them. Granted, there may be the slightest more of time delay in it performing some tasks, but honestly, has been hardly noticeable or in any way shape or form a hinderance or negative. Especially given the fact that I am able to do it wherever I may be on the road, and do it on a small and lightweight machine.
The only con to using the Air for photo work, is the display - yes it has a better resolution than it's 13" MacBook Pro counterpart, and has as good a resolution as the 15" MacBook Pro, but color saturation, gamma, are not consistent, and as good as my iMac's.
I tried several screen calibrations to get it as close to my iMac's screen, but just not going to happen with the Air screen, and just got it as close as I can. I just have to remember and keep that in mind when editing, and try not to compensate for color saturation and the like, on the Air, and just wait until I proof them on my iMac and do final adjustments on their if needed.
Other than that, the Air is great and awesome, you get the small lightweight portability of the iPad, but the power and OS needed to do real and serious things, as well as ample storage, unless you're like on the road for months at a time, and for some reason feel the need to download every single RAW file, you'll be perfectly fine, and the Air will suit you to a T.

How to turn off screen on Macbook Air when connected to Computer LeD monitor?

How to turn off screen on Macbook Air when connected to Led monitor screen?

The only way you can turn it off is to close the lid - so you would need an external wired or wireless keyboard and mouse/trackpad attached.

I am a first-time mac user. I recently purchased the MacBook Air. My previous computer was an HP laptop, but I would like to move my iTunes library from the hp to the MacBook Air. How do I do this?

I don't know how to transfer my itunes library from one computer to another. Please help!

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

Torrenting on macbook air

Does anyone use bittorrent on the macbook air?
I plan to use the macbook air as a primary computer and was wondering if torrenting on it would be a good idea?
Does torrenting adversely affect an SSD?

Hi papaecho87,
The MacBook Air is perfectly capable of running BitTorrent, or any other torrent application. "Management" here at the Apple Support Communities doesn't really like conversations about ripping, torrenting, file sharing and the like. So you probably won't get much else in the way of a response.

MacBook Air as Primary Computer: Offline Storage Options

Today I have my MacBook Air configured (via MobileMe) to store/access files on my Mac Pro. This works very well. In particular, I can pull Aperture Libraries and work with them on my Air, and can also access all of my iTunes content stored on my Pro through Home Sharing (i.e., copying only what I want to my Air when needed). Finally, I can print to the printer hooked to the Pro with Printer Sharing.
I need to separate my files from my Pro. One option is to buy another Mac (e.g., a Mac Mini, for example) and replicate the same network/file management process as I have now with my Pro.
However, I wondered if there is another option -- could I instead use a Time Capsule and a powered USB hub to fulfill my offline storage and network printing needs, without purchasing a new Mac. Specifically, I was considering: (a) a 1TB Time Capsule, using the Time Capsule drive as my primary storage drive for Aperture libraries and media, (b) a powered USB hub connected to the Air Disk USB port, (c) a separate 2TB USB drive for Time Machine (for both my MacBook Air and my primary Time Capsule drive) hooked to this powered USB hub, and (d) a USB printer also hooked to the powered USB hub.
I am reasonably sure I can get this working for my Aperture library as well as for other offline files, but an not sure about iTunes. I do not know how I would split-up my iTunes Library to function in a similar fashion as today (e.g., my library sits on my Pro and I only copy what I want to my Air for remote purposes). Finally, not sure about the performance of opening my iTunes library from my Air to this network drive if, for example, I wanted to use AirTunes to stream to my Apple TV.
I searched but did not find anyone looking to do something similar. Any advice, insight or considerations would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Just to share my growing understanding of the situation in case it might provide useful information to others.....
Once again, to summarize, my interest was to explore the potential of using the MBA as my 'only' computer. The major problem was to find a way to address the MBA's relatively small hard drive. The primary concept: find a way to keep my master files (e.g., Aperture and iTunes, other files) on a separate drive, copying only what I wanted to the MBA as required. Further, for convenience, I wanted to find a way to network this separate drive vs. attaching it via USB when at home. Finally, I desired also to establish a means of accessing this separate drive when away from my home network.
An AirPort Disk (via an AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule) provides a solution to this challenge-- with some limitations. What it CAN do is serve as offline storage for many applications/needs which extend to professional applications like Aperture. Moving albums, photo files, etc. is fairly straight-forward, even on network drives. Thus, if you have a MBA with limited hard drive space, you can copy only those things you need to the MBA's internal drive while maintaining the master library(s) on the networked drive (at least that is what I've gathered to this point).
Meeting needs with iTunes is a bit trickier. The challenge is to find a way to maintain a large 'master library' on the networked drive (e.g., the AirPort Disk or Time Capsule) and only copy what is needed to the MBA's local iTunes library. The specific limitation relates to an inability to open more than one iTunes library at a time on a single machine. Note that this is not a problem if you have two Macs on the same network - but it is a challenge with only one Mac. However, I found (at least) one third-party solution that appears to have functionality that overcomes this challenge (e.g., the application permits a user to open more than one iTunes library and manage content). So there appears to be a solution for iTunes!
HOWEVER, under this 'AirPort Disk as my Master Storage' scenario, I could not find a way to preserve Time Machine functionality for what would, in essence, be my primary disk. Time Machine is an application that runs on a single Mac. Under my scenario, this translates to one instance of Time Machine running on my MBA. I could not find a way to configure Time Machine to back up the external 'master' AirPort Disk - Time Machine only permits backups of internal hard drives and drives directly attached to a Mac. Although a number of third-party 'backup' utilities are available for networked drives, they do not appear to function as seamlessly as Time Machine. This is a show-stopper for me. If I regard the external AirPort Disk as my primary storage, I want this disk to be 'Time Machined' in the same seamless manner as my internal hard drive.
Bottom line -- IMO many users will face challenges using an MBA as their 'only' computer, presuming they want to preserve the full functionality of OSX (e.g., Time Machine). My current plan is to purchase a Mac Mini as a server. I will use the drive in the Mini as my 'master' drive, leveraging 'Back to My Mac' and 'Home Sharing' to pull content to my MBA as required -- with Time Machine working separately on my MBA and Mini.

Hi, i'm a MacBook air user, and I'm happy. Where I am is my MacBook also. What I want is a Good screen for workstation. I don't need a compleet computer, just a workscreen to logon. Is there a configuration for?

Hi, I repelt my question:
Where I am is my MacBook air. Wat I need is a workscreen to logon with my MacBook air, not a complete computer.
Does my wish exist?

You must create the account using an Apple device, a Mac (Lion or greater) or an IOS device (IOS5 or greater). Having done that you will be able to sign in from your Windows machine.
FYI, iCal is an application that can display calendars from iCloud (and others) it is not a calendar itself, merely a calendar client. In Windows Outlook is the calendar client.

Advice Needed - Migrating to Macbook Air

This is a multi-facited question and I am seeking advice most of all.
I have a 2008 iMac
I would like to retire it and use my 2011 Mac Air as my primary computer (With a Thunderbolt Display)
If I use the Migratiion Assistant - will I have to delete the files currently on my Mac Air?
Is there a way to merge them?
My concern is also space. With x free
I have 256 ssd hard drive on my air. with 80 free
The drive on the iMac is 320 Gig HD with 170 Gigs free
I have important programs such as CS6 on my iMacs drive - I would prefer not to have to reinstall them.
I have heard that there are issues with booting and updating an OS on an external drive.
I have considered using Super Duper to move my iMacs system to an external drive and selectively boot to it as needed.
Is that a good idea?
Any advice is truly appreciated.

A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
1. Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
2. Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons
3. All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins
4. Contextual Menu Items
5. Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions
6. Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.
Additional links that will be helpful to new Intel-Mac users:
1. Intel In Macs
2. Apple Guide to Universal Applications
3. MacInTouch List of Compatible Universal Binaries
4. MacInTouch List of Rosetta Compatible Applications
5. MacUpdate List of Intel-Compatible Software
6. Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
7. OS X Lion: How to use Migration Assistant to transfer files from another Mac
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake
      or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Transferring files between two computers using FireWire.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and
       registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your
       desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:
a. MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch,
      Late 2008) - What to do if migration is unsuccessful;
b. MacBook Air - Migration Tips and Tricks;
c. MacBook Air - Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and
      wireless 802.11n networks.
Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

What's the best external backup solution for the 2011 MacBook Air?

I'm really considering moving to a new 2011 13" MacBook Air for my primary machine and I'm curious to know what ya'll might suggest for the ideal backup solution.
Currently I use a Firewire 800 drive with my MacBook Pro consisting of a Bootable OS backup, Media volume backup, Time Machine backup + blank volume for files.
The current external options available —Thunderbolt release date anyone?—are: USB 2.0 and Time Capsule. Lately—and a first up until now—I've started thinking about potentialy moving my backup solution online. I'm curious if anyone has experience with an affordable, simple, online solution?
Also, don't suppose any kind of storage solutions could utilize the SD card slot in any way?
I look forward to hearing about your backup solutions!
All the best,
—Jordan

Redundancy is more important than speed when it comes to backup.
I like a have a clone of my internal drive to an external drive of the same size. If your internal drive fails you can boot from your external clone. I use SuperDuper!
If your data is important to you, you should keep a backup off-site and have more than one backup set.
Cloud storage is an option if you have fast broadband and small data volumes.
I like the simplicity of Time Machine with Time Capsule for incremental and version backups.
Rather than invest in Thunderbolt (expensive and fast), invest in redundancy (cheap, slow).

Which is better for education iPad or Macbook air?

I am a grade 8 student and I walk around quite a bit in school and I would like to know which one is better for me?
Which is better for school, and no I can not get the discount.
Macbook Air or
iPad
If macbook Air which size and specs would you reccomend?
And if iPad which storage option, white or black do you reccomend?
And should I buy the iPad 2 or the new one.

Great question.
Word processing for iOS is fantastic, but not as good for citations and things as on the macbook air, though footnotes will be preserved.
The new textbook options on ipad are compelling. You should find out if any of your school textbooks are on there by searching the itunes store. If so, ipad is your choice.
They are different categories of products. the macbook air is an excellent computer.
But I guess I feel this way -- why don't you buy a desktop for the home. and an ipad for school? If you feel you can get all of your notetaking, paper drafts etc. done on ipad, then you can use mountain lion (coming out this summer) to keep it all in sync when you go home.
I do have to warn you that I tried taking my ipad to work. If you use google docs at all, you may find some limitations sometimes. If you stick within the icloud universe, (pages, keynote, and numbers), you may be mostly happy.

Will new Macbook Air display browser in 1080x1920 on HDTV?

I am about to buy a Macbook Air. A primary use for this will be to 1) Mirror browser content to an Apple TV or 2) Use Apple TV as an extended display. I understand the extended display feature may come in Maverick.
I have a MacBook Pro that will not screen mirror. It was 11 months old and Apple said the hardway would not support it. They almost lost my future business with that. AirParrot does not work on it either.
When I use an iPad III the screen ratio on the HDTV connected to AppleTV is 4:3 ratio when displaying an app or browser content. For some apps like netflix, the iPad goes full screen.
So, for those of you using the new Macbook Air, can you tell me if it will mirror a browser session to Apple TV connected HDTV and will it be in a 16:9 (1080x1920) format?
I really want it to act like an extended desktop so I could be displaying a browser based TV show on the TV and use the screen on the airbook to do other stuff. Does anyone know if that will be possible on the MBA or is that functionality reserved for better hardware?
Is anyone having issues with the mew MBA that seem to be common place?
Finally, I am getting the 13" model, 256GB but wonder about upgrading to the i7 processor. Its not a primary machine, no high CPU video editing but lots of screen mirroring of HD content. I do have a new Airport Extreme that can use 802.11 AC.
Thanks,
Kevin

Umm...
Every laptop has 6bit colors. There aren't any 8bit laptop panels that Apple could use infact. Except for some very new 17" ones...
The thing is, 8 bit panels use more power and are regarded by most of the industry as overkill for laptops.
Anyway I repeat, there are no 13" 8bit panels in existence.
You want 8 bit color? Plug in a CinemaHD or a Dell VA or IPS panel.
