[QUOTE="petenick, post: 715553, member: 17459"] Try going to the store and on the display model set the brightness all the way to zero, as thats where it'll likely be for realistic colors in photos. Then set it to a white background. If the color gradient problem is there, you will see the left side of the display is brighter than the right side on a 24" iMac. Just ask them if you can exchange it if the display isn't up to snuff. Serial numbers that start in W8 were made in China, and seem to have more issues than ones put together elsewhere. So perhaps you could ask them to get you a box that has a serial number not starting with W8. You can also try the 20" one, but for me it wasn't an option. The world has far more than 262,000 colors in it, and I would like to see most of them in my photographs if they happen to be there! [/QUOTE]
