    Any of you guys who have the thin LED screen on the xps m1330 ever experienced the yellow blanding lines coming from the bottom as expressed in this thread http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=163135&highlight=yellow

    and pictures in this one http://forum.notebookreview.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=9955&d=1188462599

    I am asking because i went through 3 sony sz680's and all 3 of them had problems so now i am considering the xps m1330 but i am afraid to go that route if it also has the yellow blanding lines problem because iv been told the xps and the sony vaio use the same type of screen.

    My Toshiba screen is PERFECT.

    It's a sad thing, but if you do order Dell, you won't know what you will get until you actually recieve your system. I guess I'm trying to say (ALL) M1330 arn't equal.

    GL, and I hope you find what you want.

    yeah thats what im afraid of, i bought my sony sz's online and they were all crap but alot of people reported the same issues so many if there aren't that many LED dell issues i might just pull the trigger.

    I've had 3 XPS M1330's with LED and none of them had this issue. It's not even of slight concern with this laptop.
