I am getting a refund tomorrow. I got a replacement a day after I got the first one and this one has more problems than the one before. How can I ask Apple for the 15 percent extra without asking for it? lol 
apple comes through once again. its great to c this
They are not nice. 15% is damage control. The issue must be one hard and expensive to solve. I venture they are trying to minimize a class action suit and further bad press.

Take that Microsoft and Dell.
Dell; You need to call Microsoft is a softwore problem,
Microsoft: you need to call dell is Hardware problem
Thats why I love Mac
Got to wonder if it was a rush or that quality control at apple has gone down as they have gone up. I also worry about 1st gen ipad could it also come out with problems because of quality control.![]()
I have a BTO 27" Core i7 that I ordered the day they were announced. It has the yellow tint problem. I haven't done anything about it yet because I didn't want to be bothered boxing it up only to get another bad screen. I think it's time I called Apple though, if for nothing else than to get a timetable of when I might expect to be able to get a non-lemon iMac when I send mine in for replacement/repair.
How do I test my system?

I'm very tempted to return mine and get a MBP and a 24in. display. This yellow screen crap has been infuriating.
Wait... let me get this straight.
You received a defective computer which cost several thousands of dollars and sat on your hands?
You didn't want to bother Apple or yourself?
Wow. Yes, I think it IS time you called Apple. This is why Apple has dragged their feet. Apathetic people who settle for defective merchandise. If you ownede a Toyota and the acclerator recall issue casueed you to warp yourself around a tree, would it be a bother as well?
Do yourself a favor and return it. In a few weeks, they may have a solution. There is an internal memo which leaked outlining such. Do a search for it, here.![]()
I really hate to say this but I don't think there's any question that quality control has gone downhill at Apple:
MB (non-unibody): Wrist wrest cracking problems (design issue)
MB (unibody): very easily cracked plastics
MBP (non-unibody): Faulty Nvidia GPU, poorly fitted keyboards, poorly aligned cases, yellow-tint on LED-backlit screens, defective batteries, corrosion on cases.
iPod Nano (3rd Gen): Misaligned screens
iPod Touch (1st Gen): Negative blacks
Mac Pro: Audio issues causing serious performance issues
iMac: Uh, this article! Plus cracked displays, flickering screens and the aluminum case scratching optical media.
