    So just two days into a series 7 from costco and the display is suddenly pixulated like a low res photo blown up to big. Also a vertical green line top to bottom at start up. Did all the updates no change. Id the display toast already?

    It would be a little bit more helpful to everyone if you could post a picture of the problem.

    I'd say your display is toast, given the vert green line. My first machine from the Microsoft Store did something similar. If I were you, I'd take a picture of it and show it to the return folks at costco.
