TFT display manufacturing is a high precision but imperfect technology and
manufacturers cannot currently produce large displays that are cosmetically perfect.
Most if not all TFT displays will exhibit some level of cosmetic imperfection. These
cosmetic imperfections may be visible to the customer under varying display
conditions and can appear as bright, dim or dark spots.
This issue is common across all vendors supplying TFT displays in their products and
is not specific to the HP OmniBook display.
The HP OmniBook TFT displays meet or exceed all TFT manufacturer's standards
for cosmetic quality of TFT displays. HP does not warrant that the displays will be
free of cosmetic imperfections.
TFT displays may have a small number of cosmetic imperfections and still conform
to the display manufacturers cosmetic quality specifications.
Here are some guidelines to use in determining what action to take on a customer
complaint of cosmetic imperfection in their TFT display:
1. The unit should be viewed in the customer's normal operating condition.
