Speaking of pixels, I had a rather weird problem on a 3-month new G5 
iMac. They had to replace the whole screen (bezel and all is the part 
configuration) due to the fact that some of my desktop pictures and 
other things like documents and folders BURNED IN to the screen to the 
point where we could not 'erase' the ghosting. I have never even seen 
that on a CRT let alone an LCD display and neither did the shop.

Hopefully it won't be an ongoing problem. I have yet to fire that one 
up and see if the fix is OK...I do have full AppleCare on it.
