i have a week 5 model i7 iMac ... while the screen is not perfect it is a lot better then week 45 and week 2 that i had.

now that the whole screen issue is behind us, has anyone been able to contact apple and using applecare have a new (NO ISSUE) screen put in their iMac ?

They offered me that just a few days ago, but I went with the replacement.
Figured changes were about the same.

But, I'd really like to hear if people have gotten a good, problem-free screen repair.

I phoned applecare and they said if I take it into my local store I could get the screen replaced for free...they said it could take up to a week and I have no other computer so going to wait for now, should still be able to get it done anytime within the years applecare though

Sadly, it's not. :mad:


Still plenty of reports of yellow screens in Week 14.

i haven't been up to the loop much but i thought the whole screen issue was fixed ....

this is disappointing none the less

i have been holding out for a bit now in hopes of the screens would have been fixed but i guess not

I wish it weren't true, but several posters have commented on yellow screens from their refurbs and new iMacs from week 14.

I think Industrial Vacancy and Btom are the same person.

talking the same **** no doubt.:confused:

I'm just waiting for a decent statistic, like x amount of numbers sold vs x amount of numbers returned/replaced for screen issues.

not going to happen.

IE the vast majority have a good machine.

meh?!?!?!
