Im quite peeved off tbh, as he's a couple of inches into the screen at the top left hand corner, very noticeable. What do you reckon the chances of an rma are?

That's the trouble with anything to do with computers.

Only a matter of time before you find some sort of bug in the system :roll:

Well Ive just been on the phone to Samsung and they have told me that its "an act of god" and thus excluded from the warranty :sad:

Ive just had a closer look and it looks like he is between the backlight unit and the tft matrix.

Tempted to get a nice SM-940BF and use this current "buggy" 913n as my second screen instead of my old crt...
