Im glad you got it replaced... but dont you think your sister deserves some sort of punishment? Like a good ol crazy-mob-pushes-little-girl-off-the-cliff style?
 
I think when the screen turns that color, it is the actual pixels of the screen being broken inside the layers of the screen. I think there is some sort of liquid inside these layers that probably leaked a little internally. You get that smudged look because several aqjacent pixels have leaked into each other by being poked. I have had 3 regular calculators do this as well as a p166 7750 compaq laptop do this. Someone please correct me if i am wrong on this, since i am just going by my best guesses.

Sad to hear that. Give tiny sister a hug and post your pics in the Hardware Destruction thread in my sig :)

Thread is a bit old eh? :D

Would be funny if his sister did it again to the replacement screen. Well i know i'd laugh...

:p

This time instead of a chopstick she took a hammer to it. lol.
 
heh that's another advantage of my CRT, I have little kids in the hours, so it won't easily damage as a LCD...........yeah debatable
 
Maybe you could ask the new Mods to do it. David has 1 lock to his name, its gotta be mdcomp this time :)

Come on guys, you all know better. I mean, it was funny, but really didn't have much value.
