    Does your screen look bad? It doesn't matter who makes it as long as the screen is good. I don't care if a hobo made mine as long as it looks good.

    If it is bad, call Dell and have it replaced.

    Some light leakage is normal; don't fret over just a little bit. However, excessive light leakage is not normal and is grounds for a replacement.

    If your screen is good, why worry about getting a different brand?
