I'm posting this on behalf of another macbook owner.
He has a black macbook and there seems to be a smudge on the screen near the botton, you see it very cleanly when the msn messager icon is docked. He has done the LCD test but it seems that it's not dead pixels, even tho the mark is black. He think that there has been mark behind the screen but i do not see how this is possible.
any Help on this subjects?

The laptop isn't brand new or anything he has had it a while but he doesn't know how the macbook has got the smudge on it.

I've seen the smudge for myself and to me it looks like dead pixel but it's not because the LCD tester shows that the pixel aren't dead.
It is also not a fingerprint, it's more like a smudge of some kind on the screen, or indeed under the screen.Massaging it doesn't work and neither does wiping it.

If you have an Apple Store nearby, you can take it in and get an opinion from an Apple Genius. It's hard to tell what you're talking about without a picture or something.

Have you tried cleaning the screen with a spray? Even fingerprints don't come off my screen unless I spray it. I use Kensington Screen Guardian and a 3M scotch bright cloth.

It may be just a bit of dust stuck to the inside of the screen. I would contact Apple and tell them about it.

Did you get any resolution (ha ha) to this? I think I may have the same problem.
