It is, I've been using one with this symptom in my test rig for about 18 months and it has gradually got worse but is still fine when warmed up. Replacement second hand LCDs aren't stupidly expensive these days, so personally I'd hold out until you can't bare it any more and replace it with one from eBay or wherever. -- Best wishes Malcolm Cornelius - The Powerbook Fanatic http://www.pbfanatic.co.uk -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
