I just today purchased the Gorgeous PX2370 Led monitor from amazon. I received it and have spend a couple of hours fine tuning it. I then noticed a stuck pixel that kind of was a eye sore. I read online that you can touch the place of the pixel and tap on it several hard times to fix it. I thought it was total BS but tried it anyway. It freakin worked!

Has anyone else heard of this technique?

Yeah that is the first step in repairing a dead pixel aside from restarting your monitor. I have found that a DS stylus works wonders on dead pixels on flat screen monitos..nothing like focused pressure :P
