Let's hope that this isn't a frequently asked question.

My monochrome monitor has a tiny black spot near the center of the screen. It
is maybe half the size of a pixel and varies in size depending on how long the
systems is running.

I checked with my retailer and he told me that this is a common problem with
monochrome monitor of more that 14" size. Additionally I tried to contact the
area distributor to get a comment, and he said that he was not sure, but didn't
think that this is usual.

Maybe someone can enlighten me which of these statements is correct and what to
do about the problem. Someone suggested ajusting the monitor to get the spot
between two lines, but I'm not sure whether that is possible.

		thanks in advance for all replies ... bye Alexander Lehmann
