New comp - installed hours worth of software. and then .. a dead pixel. Exchanged comp & starting over again. Fun!

New computer-installed anti Malware, Avast, VLc, CS5, Win updates, configured win like I like, installed FireFox and my fav plug-ins (FTP, Stumble, Firebug, etc), etc. We're talking hours... and then, I spot a dead pixel on the screen. Crap. Back to Fry's to get a new one and start all over again.
