Ok, so I just got my iMac back from its second, no wait, third repair in a row to fix ongoing issues either present before or caused by Apple in repairing the unit. So, tonight I'm reading these forums like the geek I am and the screen dims on me all of the sudden. Oh no! No more Backlight?!

So I put it to sleep, and wake it. The Screen is bright for a sec then dims again. Am I right in thinking that this is a tell tale sign of a dead backlight? If so I am calling Apple tomorrow and screaming, although as nicely as I can. Would it be better to call the store instead though?

Thanks,

Ray
