From what I have read about this problem over the years, the warped case is
just a temporary solution to the problem of the contacts between the mobo
and the screen being dirty or loose. Undue pressure in a specific spot
around the screen may cause some jaggies, but I think the problem in most
cases is really the contacts.

creationism n.: The (false) belief that large, innovative software designs
can be completely specified in advance and then painlessly magicked out of
the void by the normal efforts of a team of normally talented programmers.
In fact, experience has shown repeatedly that good designs arise only from
evolutionary, exploratory interaction between one (or at most a small
handful of) exceptionally able designer(s) and an active user population --
and that the first try at a big new idea is always wrong. Unfortunately,
because these truths don't fit the planning models beloved of management,
they are generally ignored.
