I have an Inspiron 9400, with the Truelife 17" WUXGA (1920x1200) and have *never* experienced such an issue. Not in my house, not on the road, not at my office nor those of my customers... I live in The Netherlands and we have 230v AC, but I went to the US last year and brought the 9400 with me and didn't experience this issue either. My collegue owns a 9300 with the same 17" WUXGA screen and I never heard anything like this from him..
Perhaps this "ViriiGuy" dude needs to take a look at the powersources in his house and make sure everything is grounded properly, so he doesn't get static shocks.
One thing: the 9400 does get a little heated over time, always make sure you place it on a flat surface so there remains an airflow underneath it.
Like I said in my other post, I've experience this same phenomenon many times. I have also experienced it in many locations. My house had all the wiring re-done in 2003 and all outlets are properly grounded.
