    Look at the bottom of the computer screen. The white light is the light leakage.

    To be fair, I think that the Sony LED screens also suffer from this backlight leakage. I think almost all laptop screens have this problem.

    Actually, LED backlite screens can have leakage. The first rev of Sony TX's had pretty bad light leakage. It actually looks worse than a CCFL backlite screen. Instead of a solid blob of white at the base of the screen you get a couple dozen smaller blobs around each individual LED.

    Do many people buy this laptop for gaming at all? Just wondering if the screen size is too small for most gamers?
