m) TFT, LCD & Plasma Pixel Policy
A 15 inch LCD display running at a resolution of 1024 X 768 contains 768,432 pixels, each pixel is made up of 3 sub pixels giving a total of 2,359,296 pixels. A 19 inch LCD display running at a resolution of 1280 X 1024 contains 3,932,160 pixels, and a 24 inch LCD display running at 1920 X 1200 contains 6,912,000 pixels, having a few "dead" pixels is not considered a defect.
It is rare for a LCD screen to ship with, or develop pixel irregularities. If or when a dead pixel occurs, it is not an indication that more will occur. It is usually a solitary incident. Therefore, Premier One Vision Computers must state that it is important to make our customers aware that some screens may have slight irregularities in the form of dead pixels. Within the first 28 days from purchase unfortunately, Premier One Vision Computers will only be able to replace a screen that has three or more pixel defects spread across the screen, or two dead pixels that are connected to each other. We are sorry for any disappointment this may cause our customers, however, the manufacturers of TFT, LCD and Plasma screens dictate this policy.
In most cases the warranty will be dealt with via the manufacture or manufactures agent.
