    Something that has annoyed me about my 7805u is that when there is a black background, when i view the screen from an angle at the left, there is a lighter colored blotch about 3 inches around. It is only seen when viewing at this angle and with a dark background.

    I have an AUO 1920x1200, should i just ignore it and keep it or should i try and replace it at bestbuy? Its my last day for the 14-day exchange

    Take a cleaning cloth (preferably the ones you use to clean screens) and gently press in and around the area and it should disappear...
