The line that you see in this monitor is part of how this monitor and most monitors in this class are built. There a fine wire mess behind the glass and wire holds it in place. I too use one of these monitors and it's the best monitor I've ever used and for 8 years I've been using hi-spec Sony and NEC monitor at my work. The Blue Eye integrated with this monitor to make calibration no hassle at all.

I have, however, noticed the following problems: There is a very fine line across the monitor that I have seen a number of times, in Photoshop, although writing this now, I don't see it. Lately the monitor has been flickering. It is doing it now, and I have seen it using other apps like ProfileMaker. It's as if it's going in and out of its profiled state or something. Fortunately, I have not seen it using Photoshop. If I did, the monitor would be unusable. So far for Photoshop editing, which is my main use, the monitor seems fine, and is certainly a bargain (look at PCNation's prices!), but I have to say that I'm not totally trusting it.
