Nope. Is it very visible or in the center of the screen?

You might want to sent it back to Acer to see if they can replace it for you. Try to delay till warranty almost end if not so obvious.

Check the warranty. See got how many dead pixels than can send it to the care center. If it is more than one, you may have to bear with it until u got enough dead pixels...or the faster way would be to poke it until u get enough

Visible than just walk in to request for exchange.

Delay is because you will have a new LCD after using it for 1 year. Just my 2 cents worth.

Lol.. Dont try. Acer service center quite neow one.. They might in turn blame you for applying too much pressure on the LCD screen inwards thus causing the problem and refuse to honour you the warranty. You will then be stucked with a screen filled with such act of your onw.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Acer warranty forever long que @ International BIZ park, went to repair my laptop 7times within 3years. Model Travelmate 4154LMI, had stopped production already.

Not worth trying to play with their warranty, long que + poor service.
Just bear with the 1 pixel..
