    I bought a Sony FRV 31 notebook in Thanks giving Sale. I have been experiencing a flickering / vibrations kind of in the display of the screen occasionally. Has anyone also faced this? what could be the problem? How should I proceed?

    yikes! Screen flickering is definitely grounds for returning a Notebook to the store. Did you buy a brand new one is was it refurbished? If it was refurbished hopefully you made sure it came with the same warranty as a new machine.
