Hey guys, finally acquired my first mac, I bought a MBP 2.2Ghz on amazon.com over the Thanksgiving weekend and got a sweet deal, better than Apple Edu Discount, ADC, or any other. I made the mistake of looking at the forums thoroughly while waiting for the notebook . I read about the yellowing screen issue and the poor hinge on some MBP's.
Specs:
MBP 2.2Ghz
Week 41
Screen 9C66 (AUO)...calibrated with SuperCal
First up, some pics of the notebook closed...showing the front (bigger gap at the right side, but not much...probably normal just being paranoid).
Second, some pics of the screen. I'll need to take some better pics of it. I actually took it into an Apple Store and got it checked out by a "genius". He "didn't know" of the problem and said he couldn't do anything anyways, because I bought the laptop from amazon. So I would have to return it to amazon, probably a big hassle.
I told him about the issue and where I found it, (macrumors.com). He said he's been on the website, but was actually curious of the problem and said he'd investigate.
Honestly, if I never heard of the issue...I probably wouldn't have picked it up on the screen. It's only noticeable with the "test" pic and when you have a white background (scrolling thru the internet pages and they get yellower as you go down). What do you guys think?
Finally, I'm looking into getting a wireless mouse. I tried out the apple wireless mouse and it seemed fine. I would definitely want a Bluetooth one no question, any other good wireless mouses' with BT?
Thanks for your help.
