LG Hellas...10 dead pixels...now what?

[debs67]

Hi!
I'm building my first PC,nothing high end,but good enough for me...Mobo P5B Deluxe,Conroe 6600,2gb Ram,X1950 pro (I'll be getting an r600 later! )etc. Then I decided I wanted to get a monitor...so...I've been lurking and reading and reviewing and searching and learning and thus am now confused and worried!!!
The words Dead Pixels etc. send me into a cold sweat!
I have a 17" IBM Crt, which I'm pretty happy with.
Due to budget and the space on my desk (and the colour) I'd really like the LG L204WT

But after learning about dead pixels, I'm now wondering if I should go for one of these two which have Zero Pixel guarantees.
LG L194WT

LG 1969TR-BF

I use my computer for games (Sims 2, RCT3,Pirates,ZT2 etc, no Oblivion or Halo type stuff!) and also for some home movie editing and of course the internet.
I called LG Hellas (I live in Greece) and the lady told me on the L204WT they would change it after 10 dead pixels!
SO, do I go with the one I really want and risk it, or should I go with one of the others and be safe?
Thanks for your help,
Debs

wow I though LG has 0 dead pixel policy on all of the screens? So it's only for 19" ones?

I had 1 stuck pixel on L246WP and while the store warrantee is still in effect - and did an exchange no problem, LG was ready to ship me a replacement. I guess it still depends on which store you buy from.

Sadly, here in Greece it's rare to find a store with a good returns policy...

Samsung Hellas say 7 dead pixels on site return.
I wasn't really looking into the Samy's but then I saw the 203B and thought it might be worth a look!
So which one...opinions PLEASE!
