    I would recommend that if you don't see any, then don't bother trying to check for them. If you find any that way, then you'll probably obsess over them from that point on. But if you're within return, and you want to check before deciding to return or not, then go ahead.

    Yeah, I was just curious...I'm planning on selling this one when I receive my zv6k...It'll fetch alot since it has an Athlon XP-M 2800+ & 512MB DDR SDRAM, 40GB HD, etc.

    Actually, if I found any bad pixels...It would have been a relief since that way I know I've gone a whole yr using it & I didn't notice them, therefor If there are any on my new one I'll be more likely to be oblivious.

    (I know, it sounds crazy)
