Screen is fine for about 30 minutes and then slowly starts to fade --- i 
haven't actually worked on the netbook for those 30 minutes .. so if i 
was continally using the screen , i dont know if that would make a 
difference.
When i have come back to the netbook in that fading phase, i also notice 
that the mouse cannot move on the screen nor can open anything.
So although i can still see the screen .. it's not a functional gui ..
