i had one bright blue pixel on my powerbookscreen for a week that almost made me mad. every five seconds my eye was catched by it.
i thought it was a dead pixel.
now it's gone. wtf?!

and now - 30 mins later - it's back again. i think i'm going crazy.
could this be a software related problem?

there's a widget that displays a square of quickly changing colours, you position it over the funky pixel and wait for the magic to happen.
