and my macbook pro, which was just repaired due to the screen jumping when touched, (they replaced the screen) now has two invisible horizontal lines on the screen can anyone tell if this is a hardware issue and I would have to go back to the Apple store which is 40 mins away or can I fix this myself.

Ps: as you can see in the picture by the words "screen and "they" are the lines.

Uh, no you can't see it here (I can't anyway). That's a screenshot of a bunch of 0's and 1's your video card puts out and OS X renders.

If it's got lines on it, it's a physical defect.

Not to mention the arrow keys on the box you have open aren't symetric. So yeah, take it back and see what they can do about it.
