I'm toying with the idea of getting a 14" ibook to take on the road. One thing I was wondering about is people's experience with dead or stuck pixels as well as Apple's policy regarding this.
I'm a bit paranoid about this after buying a $650 LCD monitor two years ago which had a dead pixel and the manufacturer wouldn't do anything about it.
On my second 17-inch LCD, I went for a cheap $249,- Xplio with DVI from Staples - it's beautiful and has 'zero' dead or stuck pixels.
Frankly - if I bought an LCD monitor today and it had any dead or stuck pixels, I would insist on a replacement or my money back. I don't see why I should be happy with a defective product..........and paying extra for a 'non dead pixel' warranty.......you got to be kidding!
Just wondered what the ibook experience is and how ehMac members feel about the 'dead pixel' policy of the various LCD manufacturers.
