I think there is too many offended people in the world.

I know that I was certainly offended when 4 whites were beating up on me. Obviously, at 4:1 odds, I was easily offended.

Enough of the off-topic posts, this thread is about displays.

I always get a kick out of people who are so easily offended.

And I can well imagine that you meet quite a few such people. Funny that, isn't it?

My display (20") was pretty much perfect when i got it, but ive noticed now (about 2-3 weeks later) there are at least two pixels that are stuck. I bought my system from a reseller, and i have ben thinking about giving them a ring about it. Thing is you cannot see the 'stuck pixels' unless you are running the right application or game. Under normal circumstances they are invisible - but i was using photoshop and thats when i first noticed them. I thought it was a bit of dust or something..... :(

I've had my dell 2405 for about 2 months and don't notice any stuck pixels. The first thing I did when I got the apple display was put up an all white then an all black image. That's the best way to see if anything is stuck on or stuck off. I think it's ridiculous that any customer should tolerate anything less than perfection when spending so much money. I suggest you call them before they hassle you about how long it's been since purchase.

At least they had the guts to fight. When I was in college I had a conflict with some Indians who hassled me were too chicken, so they just drew all over my car with permanent marker. Of course, it all wiped away easily. If they were smarter, they could have done better.
 
Getting back on topic, I'd be interested in hearing if others on the forum who have Apple's cinema displays noticed pixels sticking after they've owned their display for some time.

Actually I bet you won't find a single one who knows more about Apple products than me. We should make it a contest. The problem isn't what they know, anyway. It's what they're trained to do in situations like these. I already know they'll want to send it off to be repaired or they'll put in the system that it isn't an issue I can complain about, as I recall has happened to others. Why drive 60 miles round trip to receive an answer I know I won't like, and have to wait around a store I don't like for over an hour to boot?

I guess the moral of the story is: the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Try and remember that I'm the guy who shelled out $1300 + tax and therefore I'm the guy who should be irate if my product is less than perfect.

I couldnt agree with you more....i would be super pissed...BUT i would of jus gotten the 2405fpw, ($945 now i think with coupons)..and saved the rest of the $$ for ram.

IT IS the same display....

A little too late. This thread is closed.
