My story is this:
First 27" iMac I bought had display issues (flickering, horizontal bars, dock shift) so the Genius DOA'd it and gave me a 2nd one). The 2nd one was yellow, yellow, yellow, so I took it back to the store and exchanged it for iMac #3. In the meantime I got in touch with Apple Executive Relations and they wanted my 2nd and 3rd machines to send into engineering. So I swapped it out for a 4th iMac, which still had the yellow tinge, but I had decided to wait for a fix before doing anything.
So I got the call this past Monday that "new" displays were ready and available that would fix the yellow tint/tinge issue...
After 5 days at the apple store I receive iMac #4 back and to my dismay, it's still yellow. At this point I am unsure what my next course of action should be?
Here are some pics (exposed properly, shot from tripod in RAW and developed in Aperture 3 with no adjustments). Should I just live with it??? Keep in mind this is suppose to be the "new" and "fixed" LCD panels...
