    I noticed that a lot of resellers offer the dead pixel warrenty for $200. Is this a worthwhile investment, or is the quality of the LCD screen good enough that I dont really have to bother with the warrenty? And if I dont purchase the warrenty, is it possible to purchase it later on?

    Well, I decided on a M570U from Flawless Computers, The final price is around $2760. Does anyone have any promo codes I can use?

    if you go to their website now, a pop up should show up with promo codes on it.

    My clevo M570U came to $2550.00 with free shipping and the promo codes from flawless. In the end i paid an extra $200.00 for the dead pixel policy which brought my final price to $2750.00.

    I would skip on the pixel policy and save the 200 bucks if i were you.

    I thought the promo codes in the pop-up only worked for desktops and not laptops? I might as well give them a call too.
