My screen looks great. I'm picky, too. People sue for anything now a days...

Its not about "how great the screen looks" Its deceptive advertising, they advertise that the screen can display "millions of colors" where in truth it can display slightly over 210k and then dithers those colors to appear to the eye to be more.

I've never heard of this either, which surprises me considering what an excellent reputation apple has for screens.

I know my macbook's little 13.3" LCD is one of the best LCDs I've used hands down. The only better I've seen have been the high end dell and apples... I've got a few viewsonics which are good, but just don't quite live up to this one.
