that sucks, but I think that with that many, applecare will fix it for you, so I would try contacting them.

If you have 5 or more stuck or dead pixel's, you can return it to Apple and they will replace or fix it for free, if it's under the (30 or 14, i forget; maybe more) warranty.

EDIT: Damn, beaten to it. :p
 
hehe at first i thought i was one of the few lucky ones that avoided the glossy screen with the yellowish tint issue, but noooooo (one was on the top of the right and look light blackish, and one was at the right bottom look whiteish which it was not noticble unless i lower the xp's toolbar at the bottom)
it's just like when i got the ps2 lol a very visible and clear dead pixel right at the left center of the screen
 
sorry it was a psp and i patheticly did nothing, since sony ppl sorta of scared me a bit i if i send it in and exchange i might get one that's worst

this is just sad, right now sister in-law just found more bright dots under the black background, this screen with the black background now just look like a nice evening with little stars shinning in the sky :eek:

It has happened, although it's very rare. If the Genius Bar people are complete moron's, you should probably call AppleCare and send it in.
 
also usually how computers exchange within 14days work?
so it first determine by the ppl work at the Genius Bar 1st and then?

How old is the computer? If it's close to the 14 days, you may want to take it into the genius bar as soon as possible, because sometimes sending it in, they won't recognize the date you shipped it, just the date it arrived there.
 
bought it on 6/5 so almost 14 days, hey Cassie you familiar about my gradient test question?
