I have this but I never see it because it's below the dock. Other than this the computer is great. Mine is last year's model. Apple has offered to come and replace the panel but I have hesitated for months. I could end up worse off. Now there are no dead pixels, so that's been a plus.Yes it does, but I only noticed after you told me about it. So what do you think, should I send it back? If you know about this, I figure my next one will have the same as well.
Good luck with your new computer.
