go for 2209wa

Don't forget about USB port, height adjustment and swivel capabilities on 2209WA.

It is not dead pixel, it is stuck pixel. Dead pixel doesn't have color. It is dead.

I have bought more than 8 LCDs from DELL over the pass 5 years, all my LCDs come with the VGA cable attached to the unit. Recently I bought the s2409w from a forumer, that's the only model that the VGA cable is sealed. What you get is not a refurbished unit, refurbished unit ship in a tall box with the stand attached.

About the stuck pixel, you can try a few methods like run a loop a unstuck pixel video, and gently rubbing on your screen in a circular motion.

If you really want to ask for an exchange, demand a brand new unit. If not they will ship you with a refurbished unit.

I will do the honor to correct you, because you are all wrong.

1) Dead pixel doesn't show any color. It is pure black, because the pixel is off. It is dead. So your claim of dead pixel = white on black screen is misleading.

2) A stuck pixel happens when 3 sub-pixels (either red, green or blue, or could be a combination) is left lit on the screen. So a red stuck pixel will not be seen on a red screen. When you cycle to other color like green, the red subpixel which is stuck there will remain as red, so you can see a small red dot.

3) The rubbing technique works on some, it is one of the most popular technique to unstuck a stuck pixel. So if it doesn't work for you, doesn't mean it doesn't work for others. Do not make a conclusion based on your experience. Nobody ask you to rub using your razor blade, how will gently rubbing leave marks on a LCD screen?

Sail to v7.00 guys
