    Hi guys, I purchased a Sager last August and I'm approaching the end of my warranty. I have an issue with my LCD monitor that I want to fix before its up: there are strange smudge marks on the monitor, especially visible on white backgrounds. There does not seem to be anything wrong with the screen when the laptop is turned off. The problem has started a while back, and the number of smudges are gradually increasing. If you look at the smudged areas at an extreme angle instead of straight on, you will actually notice that them as dots that are lighter colored then the surroundings. I've tried wiping the screen, but it has no effect. I take care not to touch the screen at all unless I'm cleaning it. Do you guys have any idea of what might be wrong? Thanks! :)

    PS, if you guys need pictures, I can take some, but the smudges are very light, and I don't know if they will show up well. But its very annoying when trying to type or read.
