    Ive got a American FE590 and I only just noticed a small sphere in the top right of my screen where the colors are dulled its about the size of a finger tip and its very noticable especially on a white background where it looks like a grey smudge, If you tap the side of the screen the LCD where the smudge is flashes white like someones just pushed down hard on the screen and its very worrysome to me as this laptop is only 3 months old and Ill have to ship it back to the US to have it fixed under the warranty which is about 200$ back and forth. Its only appeared in the last day or so and I dont think its a software issue as its reacts to phsycical stimulation.

    Sounds to be a LCD pressure mark

    Is there anyway to get rid of it? What would have caused it?
