    What does the warranty say about dead pixels? Most makers have a policy about how many fail.

    Sony dead pixel policy
    If it is the complete pixel that's faulty (always on or always off) then it is outside tolerance. However, it is is just one colour on each that's stuck then it looks like it is within tolerance.

    Google is your friend

    Edit: You will be cheered to see that Sony meet the requirements of ISO standard 13406-2

    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    Me and my friend bough a Samsung syncmaster 710t and i got a good one and he got one with dead pixels. He replaced it with another one. Doesn't matter what you buy, if soo good, shit happens, soo you should make sure that you can replace.
