    Hi, I was wondering what the dead pixel policy is for Sony's notebook line? I have a dead pixel in my sony vgn-n130g notebook. I've tried the various methods online about trying to fix the dead pixel with no success. My notebook is about 8 months old.

    I think Sony has a minimum of five. I may be wrong.

    It's funny, howcome the "Dead Pixel Policy" isn't ever on the warranty card, or any information that came with the laptop? Kinda deceiving.

    It's not "funny" or deceiving. It is business.

    If someone chooses to live in ignorance, they can enjoy their bliss, while it lasts.
