Hiya, The line that is present on the MAC High Res monitors is due the the Trinitron technology used to produce it. In order to get the wonderful colors they need to have a wire that runs in just the wrong place and causes a line to appear. Basically stated, the electron beam never updates the area where the line is. Look on any Sony Trinitron TV and you will see the same line. It is nice to know that companies really care about the consumer. Maurice
