my 15" powerbook has the spot problem so i was wondering if i can bring it to an apple centre to get it changed or do i have to send it back to apple? I bought mine direct from Apple UK with the education discount.
Got a tip for us?

If you take it in, they will probably just send it out, but you never know.....its a widespread problem, so they may have a special system for this particular issue. personally, I'd just call apple and ask what will get your PB fixed the fastest.

Here's how my "white spot repair" went. I live in the NW corner of the US, in the state of Washington. I took my Powerbook into the Apple Store on a Monday, and they had it back to me on Thursday of that same week.
I imagine it might take longer what with you being in London. But it does seem like Apple is trying hard to give good service for this issue.

was this apple store the apple store you bought your powerbook from? i'm still confused as to whether i can send in my powerbook to any apple centre or must i deal direct with apple? (especially since i didn't buy my powerbook from an apple centre and got it direct from apple)

I bought my Powerbook directly from Apple's Website. You can take it into any Apple retail store - they'll just look up your information on-line.
alright...thanks a lot guys...i think i'll hold on to my pb for now though..looks like the new screen replacements have illumination problems....
