Is it true you destroy your display by shinning those little red lazers into the screen? I noticed I have a pixel missing and was wondering why this could have happend.

I have a bridge that I would like to sell you....

Any modern mini-laser is such low power that I wouldn't worry. I haven't done hte numbers but I would suspect that direct sunlight has a higher intensity.

I would think it would bounce right off the screen.

I don't think LCD is technically glass for the lazer to bounce off of.

This isnt an LCD screen. Its just a flat screen with one of the huge backs on it.
