I recently purchased a Samsung 25" lcd screen. I did this before i bought my macbook pro. I went into bestbuy the other day and was dinking around on thier macbook pro and saw that there wasn't an option to set an external screen to 1920x1200 pixels, which my screen is. The guy at best buy said if i connected my screen to the macbook pro it would be fuzzy or blurry, but am not convinced he knows what hes talking about. I just hope i dont have to return my screen to fit the macbook pro. Any answer or help will be really appreciated. Thanks!

Yeah, MacBooks and MacBook Pros can for sure output to 1920x1200. I output to a 24" Westinghouse at 1920x1200 on a MacBook Pro all the time. It's perfectly clear.

The MBP can support up to 2560x1600. The guy at best buy doesnt know what he's talking about 
BTW, I have a 15" 4G Powerbook and I'm running a Dell 2408WFP just fine.
