This happened a while ago so I don't remember the exact details, but I don't think they should matter..

I either turned on my computer from sleep or turned off the screen while I was out of the room (as it is essentially a giant radiator but a bit more pleasing to the eye) and then turned it back on. When I did, a line a pixel wide appeared in the middle of the screen running vertically, from top to bottom. The line isn't quite red, but pink, perhaps magenta, if Apple uses CMYK. I didn't even bother with any of the flashed based fixer-uppers because I can tell its a hardware problem, and it hasn't gone away.

Has this happened to anyone else? I can deal with the line as it is a great monitor, but what can I do about it? Does Apple fix this? Can it be fixed without a new monitor? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you much,
Nathan

I'd call Apple and get them to fix it/send you a new one. That's a very high-end product and you shouldn't have to deal with any hardware issues. I'm guessing you won't have much problem getting a replacement.

Have you tried it with another computer??? Just so you can be completely sure its the monitor not the GFX card!

Worth checking!!

Had one two pixels wide on my 30", right in the centre. Couldn't see it on red, blue or green - only on neutral colours.

Apple replaced it with nary a problem.
