Hi all, Last week I noticed that my new Viewsonic 20" LCD monitor had a white pixel. I had purchased the 2 year replacement plan, so I took it back to CompUSA, and returned it. They gave me a new one, which also had a purple pixel in a different place. I took that back, and they couldn't show me one without a dead pixel of some sort in the display.

Since I went through 6 monitors, one of them a Samsung, it left me wondering. Are dead pixels just a fact of life for LCDs? TIA, Lavode -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
