Just wondering if anyone can tell me how normal areas of white discolouration (when viewing a black, or dark screen) on each corner of my imac are - they're diagonal, around a few cm each. Drives me nuts watching DVDs with dark cinematography.

Seen this before on older power books, but it usually took a while to happen, and I put it down to pressure behind the LCD.

I had this, and i just took my imac back for a full refund, for more info (and pics), see this thread https://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=3142746&posted=1#post3142746
