I would have to think that this is a misprint......the base e80x is a VGA capable screen.....I don't think they would "downgrade" it.....

If you buy the e800 with WM2003 First Edition, it doesn't "officially" support the VGA mode that the screen is capable of. My suspicion is that's what the webpage is conveying. An upgrade to Second Edition (which I believe is downloadable right now from the Toshiba Europe site) or the installation of one or more hacks will "unlock" that functionality.
