If it had one right IN the corner, then a fine point magic marker fixes it somewhat. Normally, I seem to be the luckless one. Bought two bad Ti4600's when they first came out. Went to ATI for a bit. Back with Nvidia for a bit now. Funny, you don't see LCD's on display in the stores with dead pixels. With all the problems I've been hearing on people getting new LCD's with bad pixels, I think I'll be looking at the thing work IN the store before I pay for it. Cause they have a rule, x number of bad ones to return it. As far as I'm concerned, one is too many. McG.
