    I have read many many threads on this but now i have a question. I bought this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140336586847&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT .

    I had to remove the tabs on the top and the bracket holding the inverteron the bottom of the screen so I could use the one that came with the laptop...

    The screen looks gorgeous except for one stuck pixel... it doesn't show up on red or blue so I am 90% sure its stuck, I have tried several of the ,ethods of unsticking and currently have UPPix running to see if that works...

    Have any of you bought from this seller and have any of you had to cut those tabs off?

    Also, I am not sure if I like everything being so small with this resolution screen, I am probably gonna sell this screen and put my 1440x900 back in
