          It’s funny how everyone pretends to give a fuck about environmentalism until they’re faced with the most minor of minor inconveniences.

            I like how you’re trying to tie manufacturers selling defective items at full price to environmentalism as if that makes the practice okay.

            The conversation is actually about manufacturer greed (w.r.t sale prices going past $1000) and audacity to ask customers to pay that much for a less than perfect (their marketing material, theur words) device.

              I hate greedy corporations as much as the next guy, but manufacturers are not going to up their QC to include single dead pixels and take a hit to their profit margin. They’d increase prices, by a lot.

              Maybe there’s a market for displays that meet this standard for the nitpickers, and sell the ones that fail at a discount, but they’d definitely be a premium.
