hey there

i'm pretty certain that my i7 has the yellow tinge problem, it's one i ordered when they were first announced and i got it sometime during november.

am i still eligible to get it replaced?
or am i eligible to get it exchanged for a macbook pro (or something... like a refund .etc)?

i am in australia by the way.

I know what you should do....completely ignore the extensive thread covering this issue which is never far from the top of page 1. Then instead of posting your question in that relevant thread create your own thread.

But you could possibly post your question in that thread like everyone else has managed to.

You can get it to the store and hope they see what you do. If there is a problem, Apple is pretty good about backing up their hardware.

Sorry that they will not trade it for a MBPro

Wow.....quite busy aren't we? Let's not waste any more of YOUR time while we answer YOUR specific question....but it's OK for the rest of us to have to waste our time wading through multiple threads on the same topic.

Apologies if I came over rude - my post was framed by a smidgin of good natured sarcasm but maybe I'm coming over all Victor Meldrew.

My actual point was that this question has been asked countless times and if the OP just checked the relevant thread they would more than likely find an appropriate answer within 3 minutes. Failing that posting their question in the relevant thread would more than likely get an appropriate response, provide an audit trail for other users to benefit from and help keep the board uncluttered.

Exactly!

They'll expect you to take it to them I'm afraid. If they replace the screen and it still doesn't resolve it, next time they may offer to collect the machine from you.

You need to give them a chance to fix the problem before you can look to escalate or look at options.
