    I believe the screen issue is the same in 17" as that in 15" but the thing is not many ppl order a 17" and hence you dont see much ppl complaining....

    Well, there was one poster that took some pretty good pics of a crappy AUO display. Maybe after viewing these pictures, you can now say you have seen one!

    These pics show clearly the difference between the worst and the best.. AUO and LG The SEC is somewhere in between, and is crap as well as far as I am concerned. The LG looks just like my LG on my new HP. LG makes some damn nice displays.
