It is probably just releasing some gas as a result of it
decomposition and creating bubbles in the material.
It sure looks like mold though. I certainly can't give the final word, but my
original monitor didn't exhibit any mold/stain/?. After, like a fool, I stored it in a
less then moisture tight shed for a time (can't remember, maybe 3-4 years), sho'
'nuf, it molded? up. The 2 I obtained around a year ago came w/the mold? - no extra
charge. They were used in a medical environment, then were in this guy's basement for
who knows how long.
