Dead Pixel?

You're probably lucky to have bought it at Best Buy. Apple might not have exchanged it for two dead pixels.

Yeah best buy apple has a limit It has to be at least 5 dead pixels. He told me though for best buy anyways don't matter if its 1 or 100 dead pixels it can be returned.

Dammit, I really want someone to try the Cars trick sometime...

Okay, Dave. Maybe I will. I have one bad pixel on my Acer 23". Other pixel fixers haven't helped. Perhaps an eight hour dose of Lightning McQueen will do the trick!

I don't understand how manufacturers can expect people to settle for bad
pixels on a brand new device. There's no way I would.

Its just I have had dead pixels before and I know what they look like. The two that I have on the new iMac are so microscopic small that I have to get my face 3" from the screen to even see them. What would you guys do? Is it true if you have a dead pixel one can turn into 2 and 2 can turn into like 6 real quick? That's what the guy from best-buy said so that's why I really kind of wanted to return it and just not let it go. What would you guys do?

I've never seen bad pixels multiply spontaneously.

Pixel virus!
I'd stop obsessing about them and find something better to worry about, like Ebola or Smallpox.

Easy to say when it's not your iMac.

I'm sorry Cj. That was a rude thing for me to say. I wish you luck with it!
