Yea, after some web searches, I finally discovered this is
apparently a "feature", not a bug. I hesitate to try to imagine
the mental state of someone who could think this was helpful.
(And when I fix the underscan setting, I still think the
image may be scaled to something like 99.9% because the
fonts still don't look really right for the screen).

But on a more on topic subject related to the same machine:

I haven't installed fedora on a box with Windows already present
in ages. Are there any magic handshakes I need to know about
with all the magical special recovery partitions Dell seems to
have hidden on the disk. I'd like to preserve the Windows install
and just make some room to add fedora as well as a multi-boot
option.
