I just ordered my Inspiron notebook from Dell. I am trying to look on the internetz to find out whether this model uses 8-bit panels or 6-bit panels with dithering. If anyone could give me info on this, that would be appreciated.

I have no idea.

Here is an article on it. Maybe it can help.

This looks like an article on dithering on that page.
"Amongst the four monitors only one claims to have precise colors with the Eizo L887´s characteristics mentioning an internal 14 bit processing. We haven´t really successfully obtained details on this subject, because, in fact, the monitor only has an 8 bit input. After that there is a 14 bit interpolation that is probably more intelligent than just adding 6 zeros behind 8 bit values. For this the monitor has to process the image dithering, recalculate it and base this calculation on surrounding pixels to establish more accurate averages."

You can find that Eizo here

but it looks discontinued. If the dell doesn't have enough dithering, you can always get an external monitor like that.
