Magnetic Interference??

Posted:

Look at the photo that illustrates the speaker grill on the bottom of the display -- the wallpaper image has strange curved lines that look eerily similar to magnetic interference that could be caused by the magnets in the speakers. I emailed AI about this yesterday, but did not get a response - hoping to get clarification without creating unnecessary FUD, so I ask here in the open. What are those curved lines? Are they part of the image, or are they a flaw in the monitor? Also, how do you insert an image in a post here aside from using a URL????

    This picture?







    That's a sort of interference pattern that occurs when you take a digital photo of an LCD.



    Here is the background. Put it on your monitor and take a photo, in good natural light, at a similar angle. You should see something similar.



    Here, I've done it for you:







    For the record, my monitor is an LG with a P-MVA panel and my camera is an old P&S. Different camera, different screen, different lighting, so it looks a little different. But it illustrates the same thing.
