Hi all I Just purchased a new 2.4 aluminum macbook on Saturday and noticed how much better my screen is to a friends late 08 2.4 aluminum. I checked it against a friends new Air and it looked the Same. Has Apple upgraded the screens to new macbooks? :confused:

I honestly have no idea, however because my MacBook got an iLife '09 drop-in DVD, I assume its manufacturing date is in 2008 also. However, I don't know how I can check so I can have a basis for my comparison to someone elses MacBook.

That would be very interesting!
What does it say in the Graphics / Display section of the System Profiler?
Can you post a screen shot?
