I had the same problem with my Dell Inspiron 6000.  Dell sent me a new LCD screen and I haven't had the problem since I replaced it.

Yeah, but mine is a laptop. Can they do that? And if so how much would it cost? Cause this laptop is only like three months old.

Mine is a laptop too (Dell Inspiron 6000).  I contacted Dell Hardware Warranty Support and they gave me two options: 1) I could return my laptop and have one of their technicians replace the LCD or 2) they would send me a new LCD and I could replace it myself.  I choose to replace it myself, because I didn't want to take a chance of my laptop getting lost in the mail. 
 
Dell provided a link to a website giving instructions on how to replace the LCD myself.  I printed out the instructions and then asked my husband to actually replace it - which he did.  It was pretty easy. 
 
My laptop is about 8 months old - I wasn't happy with the fact that I am already having to replace parts; however, I am thankful that it is still covered under the warranty!

Thanks a lot for your input. One more question, how often did it flicker? Because mine hasn't done it in like a day or two.
