Hmmm... I'm having the same problem with my *non-apple* Sony monitor (the
line, not the smudge).  Same place too.  Methinks there are a set of
defective video cards out there.  Also, I do notice a slight lack of clean
focus on the left edge (is this what you were refering to Jeff?).

Apple?  How about it.  What's the word on these two things (especially since
my warranty expires in about a month).
