[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1799568, member: 110816"] That is NOT a dead pixel problem. A dead pixel problem is specific to the LCD alone and happens all the times. Additionally, as the name implies, with a dead pixel (or pixels) problem, you have a few pixels that don't turn leaving small spots without color. If the graphical issues the seller is describing is coming and going, that's a graphics card issue and is symbolic of a more systematic issue with the hardware that will only get worse with time. Avoid this machine. You are better of heading to the Mac Refurb store to see if you can find a MBA or Macbook based on your budget. [/QUOTE]
