Kind of worried...

I had one with dead pixels and then another with a dent and scratches. I wish the quality control was better, but I wouldnt let it stop you from buying. Overall it is a great computer!

Did you get a 3rd one? I just got my 3rd on my lunch break and haven't looked it over yet.

Yup. Still has problems, but I am going to live with it. Im tired of driving 30 miles plus being a pest about these issues. I do think dead pixels, dents, and scratches that are 0.5" to 1" are serious problems though.

What issues are you having now? I hear ya about being a pest. The guys at the Apple Store told me this was the last time they would exchange it for minor defects, lol. I felt bad about exchanging it twice, but I just expect it to be perfect. I guess that is unrealistic though. I am the type of guy to find a problem with EVERYTHING. Hopefully my 3rd one is better. Can't open it until after work.

scratches in 3 locations on the cover. No dead pixels though...

This hardly seems necessary. Most MacBooks will be perfect coming out of the box. Plus opening it at the store take away from the gestalt of the "Apple experience".

The odds are in the buyer's favor of getting a "perfect" machine.
