Hey guys!
OK - so I get the NEC AccuSync 95F. This is much better than the last monitor I tried as far as no aperature grille lines across the monitor (since it's a standard CRT), but still I get the lines down. They seem brighter than the rest of the screen, and are more prominent the higher in resolution you go. My question is...does every monitor do this? Maybe I should just settle for this, but I don't want to if it can be avoided. (I am testing it at home on a laptop before I take the machine to college, so I don't know if the video card could have something to do with it or not).

Thanks a lot,

Hey all.
Well, good news and bad news. Found out the vertical lines were coming from my video card (which is a laptop I'm just testing the monitor out on). So the monitor's fine as far as that goes (tested it on a different machine). Except...at the very bottom...it's got a pixel that's stuck on red (and no, this isn't an LCD - it's a normal CRT). Grrr...not sure what I'm gonna do yet. I really don't want any defects if I can help it, but this is already the second monitor I tried, and it is better than the last kind (different model). Nobody has any way to fix dead pixels, do they?

Thanks,
guptasa1
