This is the one time I do NOT recommend Newegg.  They have a silly policy
of only accepting 8 dead (not stuck, but rather dead) pixels.

Most companies want to tell you that one or two is typical, including
Apple, but I've told people that if you get any crap from the person
you're talking to, thank them, hang up, and call back.  Most anyone you
are actually going to expect to take better care of people will do it, but
with outsourced customer service and tech support...

I wouldn't tollerate one dead pixel from the likes of Sony, Apple, Dell,
or anyone like that.  I accepted one stuck red from Viewsonic mostly
because I couldn't be bothered to do anything about it.
