Ok.. just got my G73 in from newegg this week... and I'm absolutely in love with it.... except 1 thing.
After the laptop warms up (running for an hour or 2), I get a discolored/faded/white cloud in the lower right hand corner. (LCD Mura)
Now the question is, should I immediately send it back in for them to check it out (don't really want to be without the laptop since I just spent the better part of 2 days migrating all my data and programs over to it... or see if it goes away after a few weeks? I've seen this happen in lower quality LCD panels in the past (and usually you can 'massage' the spot around a bit to get it into a corner or an edge.. but this one doesn't seem to want to move. If it was a 'budget' laptop, I'd just ignore it and hope it went away.. but having dropped decent $$$ on this thing, makes me a bit edgy.
As a part-time professional photographer, this color variance is really getting to me.. I just don't know if I'm being impatient or not, wanting my screen to be 'perfect' out of the box.
(here's some pics of what it does to the image quality on both white and black screens. whit multiple colors on screen, it makes them slightly 'yellow' casted.)
Thoughts? (Wish to heck ASUS either had an auth'd repair center here local, or would just allow me to cert with them, the way I am with 3 of their competitors, and allow me to swap it myself) Send it in now, and get it taken care of... or wait to see if it 'works itself out'.

In fact your screen should work perfectly out of the box. I would send it back to newegg for a replacement if you are still udner their exchange policy. If not, then the only option is to send it to asus and wait them to replace the screen. Try contacting newegg first and keep us up to date.
