You are exactly right Joel.  In January, I sent in my Ti500 to 
replace a nonfunctional DVD drive.  When I got it back, they had 
replaced the top of the case and the screen, even though I had not 
asked for this (nor were they damaged in any way).  The new screen 
had many stuck pixels in the middle of the screen, my original one 
had no bad pixels.  I think they harvested my screen for new 
computers and gave me a reject screen.  Maybe someone will get lucky 
and get my old screen as a replacement...
