,,, what is that picture ...
That's an extreme close-up photo of a "dead" green sub-pixel on a 24" ALU iMac display. The photo shows an area 5 pixels wide by 7 pixels high (about 1.4 mm x 1.9 mm). Each pixel consists of a three sub-pixels (one red, one blue, one green).
In the photo, the dead green sub-pixel looks like a large black gap -- but to the naked eye, it looked for all the world like a tiny magenta dot stuck "ON." With a dot that small, it would be very easy to mistake magenta for dark red -- it sure had me fooled for a while.
As I understand it, there's a fair chance of reviving a sub-pixel that's stuck "ON" -- but not much hope for one that's stuck "OFF." So, a +bright red+ defect is more likely to respond to pixel-fixing tricks than a magenta one.
BTW, a red sub-pixel that's stuck "ON" will remain red when viewed against a pure black background, and will disappear when viewed against a pure white backgbound. A green sub-pixel that's stuck "OFF" will disappear against a black background, and will appear magenta (or dark red) against a white background.
...good luck,
