Stupid Dell mouthpiece.That writeup is wrong in just about every way:

"found the problem to be pretty rare"

Yeah, rare in that it only affected every 2007wfp, 2007fp and 2407wfp. In the grand scheme of things, that is rare.

"Turns out the reported banding is caused by the desktop mode"

Actually, of the three modes, there was less banding in desktop mode than other modes.

"Dell has now updated the firmware to disable this mode"

Again no. What the firmware does is adjust the ACM controls and turn of Faroudja video scaler/processor in desktop mode. Desktop mode is the only that actually will be banding free.
