    Hi, I recently bought a Y470 which is a great machine, but my only concern is the screen. I switched from a VAIO ( Sony VAIO VGN-NW120J (Staples) Review & Rating | PCMag.com ) to this, and VAIO's screen was just great. This one, however, is a bit grainy/pixely, and I can discern the pixels. It gives me headache and my eyes hurt as well. :-/ I think I was spoiled by VAIO's screen, but if I don't get used to this screen within a week, I would be looking for a new one. Could you recommend any? 1366x768 screen is fine, no higher resolution needed (I don't think I can even attach a higher resolution to this laptop, due to motherboard limitations). I am looking for something not grainy at all, a very good, clear, crisp picture. Thanks!
