Flickering LCD, well only a few times....

Guys,

I've noticed something a little disturbing though it hasn't posed any real problems yet. See...I'm on my Dell a lot and the other day I noticed that the screen flickered suddenly. It was displaying a website and then went black but then back to the site in an instant. It was very brief. I think it happened once or twice before. Again, this was very brief but I know it happened at least twice.

Thoughts?

    Sounds like it could be a loose flex cable (the cable that connects the LCD and the GPU). I'd open it up and reseat the cable to be sure.
