    how long does it take for an LED panel to start loosing its gloriously bright display? either my eyes have gotten used to its stunning beauty or the little LED lights are starting to dim on me.

    LED lasts MUCH longer than CCFL. I don't have the exact figures, but you're probably just getting used to it.

    Is the display starting to look bluish? Some of the white LED lights I have at home have turned bluish and are noticeably dimmer than when they were new. I've been wondering if the white LEDs in notebook displays are subject to the same fate.
