Isn't there something you can do in the store? Or some sort of accepted universal test that Apple does for their monitors?........joe

You can figure out by switching the WallPaper and trying a bright and a dark one. And like any other LCD vendor, up to 10 dead pixels is tolerated. Is very unlike that you can get a perfect one.

You can just go to www.versiontracker.com and do a search for LCD or something similar.
