There seems to be a relatively common problem in thinkpads - a colored dot on the screen that looks like a bad pixel, but really isn't. I noticed it on my new Z60m, and promptly created a program to fix it. I just run it whenever I see the dot, and it disappears. After looking on these forums, it seems like I'm not the only one with this problem, so I decided to offer my program for download:
http://repentsyn.snsware.net
http://thinkpad.snsware.net
Both links work, and both look the same. I couldn't decide which to use, so I went with both.
I am curious about how many people have this problem, so post back if you do..
