Mid 2014 Macbook 15inch Crash

[raymond33]

Hi,
I am wondering if this is a concern, I have my rMBP 15 inch for two weeks now and I had two grey screen of death (prompted me to restart due to a crash). The last time was when I was watching a video on youtube. Should I bring it in to apple or is it a common software problem?

Thank you!

I believe the "crashes" here are Kernel Panics.

If it's still within the 14 days from the day you bought your Mac, I suggest that you bring it in to get it checked.

If it's not, then you could probably expect that to happen from time to time. My Late 2013 15" has had incidences where it would crash more than 5 times a day. But it's better now since upgrading to Yosemite Beta

Oh wow! 5 times a day? I should definitely bring it in then! But I'm a computer illiterate. Does this have something to do with the hardware?

A properly functioning computer should not crash during normal usage. Take it into Apple.
