    i've been reading the grainy screen problems that hp's been having.

    i saw a big difference in brightness between my laptop and the display laptop at the retail stores. (mine was grainy and dimmer)
    so im guessing some screens are worse than others.
    the display laptop's clarity were brilliant.


    so i exchanged mine, and the 2nd one was also grainy and dim, but not as much as the first one. im planning to exchange a third time, but i dont know if i should waste my time (its a long drive) i have 14 days left of my return warrenty.



    --- MY Screen brightness and resolution is set at MAX -----


    im just wondering what are the odds of receiving a grainy screen and getting a good screen.

    anyone have any idea?
