I have had my MacBook Pro since August and I absolutely love it. I have had the screen replaced twice though once for discoloration and and the other (just this Friday) because the hinge was creaking. This has been an issue since I got the machine, and as time goes on the hinge just gets tighter and tighter and the creaking gets worse each time. I just got my MBP back yesterday and the hinge is already extremely tight and creaking big time after they allegedly "fixed" it. At this point I am really PO'ed because it just seems like they can't fix the thing. I would assume that replacing the screen counts as a major repair, so is this would be the 3rd major repair, does that mean I will just get a new machine? I mean I shouldn't have to get my MBP screen replaced this often or even be at the Genius Bar this much in a 4 month span.

I know this sounds like a real b**ch issue, but it bothers the hell out of me, and if it had been "fixed" twice before shouldn't it have just been done right the first time and be done with the issue.
