Is it possible to know the name of screen manufacturer (LG or Samsung) of the 15" rMBP by just knowing the serial number of the machine itself ? How?

 

[Intell]

No.

Just buy a machine, and use it.

Don't fuss over what screen you have just because people moan about it on a forum.

Lol people are so rude. Just get the retina computer you want, type in the terminal code. If you get a LG POS with IR then exchange it. I went looking for a 15" rmbp the other day and even the store display models had terrible IR. I'm just going to wait and see what they do this spring/summer.
