And brightness. (Although this tends to be more of a problem with small, 
portable displays. And since it's impossible to make a small, portable 
CRT display *at all*, I guess we can live with that.)

My PC monitor has this. It's surprisingly annoying.

This seems to be very, very rare. I've only seen it on one or two LCD 
displays. [Including the one I'm using right now, BTW.] Well over 99% of 
the LCDs I've seen have no dead pixels at all.
