First of all, I am pretty sure you can still return the monitor, even without plastic cover. A quick call to DELL will clarify this, but I'm pretty sure of that. Second, as far as adjusting saturation - I felt that decreasing brightness of each color individually (by the same number of "clicks") should overall "decrease" saturation. Ultimately, you're decreasing brightness and not saturation, but the monitor is bright enough, so the actual brightness won't suffer that much, yet it felt (at least to me) that by dialing down brightness I reduced saturation. I did end up returning the monitor, but not because of its saturation. I felt that resolution was too high for my eyes... Unfortunately. I honestly regret that decision now. I think I should have kept it longer and chances are I would have gotten used to it. I settled for a 22" Samsung 226BW and I still miss the extra real estate 2407 was offering. Not so much horizontally, but vertically, Samsung's 1050pixels just doesn't cut it. So, I would advice you to give this monitor a fair try. Keep it for as long as you can and then make a decision . Hope this helps! -Vadim Hi Paul,

They looked like "too much". Even the skin is super saturated. You said "sometimes may be even a bit too saturated (can be easily adjusted)" How do you adjust the saturation easily on the display? I can get access to a calibrator but I don't really think it can tame down the oversaturation. Stupid me, the screen was so amazing I threw the plastic packaging so i don't know if I can still return it. And the display itself is so great, I'd rather not have to send it back ! A friend bought the previous non-HC version and she likes what she sees. She's a pro retoucher so her Dell must be really performing well if she actually works with it. Why is the HC so tough and vivid...? it's a shame. Thanks in advance for your help ! Hi Vadim
