    Hi,
    I bought M6300, LG screen - 17" 1440x900. Colours quite nice but viewing angles horrible. There was one angle where I could see almost the whole screen nice and clear. Right side was also a bit darker. Not even mentioning dark corners and light bleed. So I asked them to replace it.

    They came on the next day... with AUO. Grainy and really dark in the bottom left. Worse colours.

    Something from their site: "Featuring uncompromising graphic performance, the M6300 is an ideal tool for digital content creators and CAD users who have a need for mobility. "

    With such screen?

    I spoke to one of the forum members and he said that there is a general problem with 17" 1440x900. What is your experience? Do I really have to go for higher resolutions?
