    Hi Folks. I am looking for some advice. Today I discovered what appears to be a couple of small lines in the screen. It's hard to explain but these are apparent when I get close to the screen and can also be seen when the laptop is turned off. They are in the bottom right quadrant. The lines are not visible when I'm using the machine for regular normal day activities since its mostly white backgrounds. I don't know but I'm wondering can these be scrathes? I tried taking pictures but the lines aren't pronounced enough to be captured. What do you recommed I do? I have a return to depot warranty. I have already sent this machine there once when I had an issue with dust specs inside the screen and they simply sent it back saying 'cosmetic issues aren't covered under the warranty'. So where do I go from here. Any suggestions, past experiences...would be greatly appreciated..

    Thanks
