maxdata are now aware of this thread on this forum, spoken to them twice today with regard to my monitor, seems they want to get this sorted for me as quickly as possible.
I informed them that this issue with backlight leakage was becomming more common with people, and they asked me how i came to this conclusion. I informed them that i found out by looking on here, and the chap went on here to look while i was on the phone.
So hopefully they know there is some kind of flaw or there has been a bad batch of these monitors that has been made.
They have offered to swap out the monitor again, but i have told them im not prepared to have another one unless its tested.
Will keep people informed on my progress with maxdata.
