Just curious if anyone with a new 15" MBP has experienced moments when part of the screen, or the whole screen, goes black for a split second. I need to take in my 1st gen UMBP to get that fixed :\

Yup. Just bought a 15" Uni 2.53 on Tuesday...Wednseday the screen went lime green and now it's flickering between lime green and normal. I also noticed green lines around things on the screen.

Seems like the graphics card is crapping the bed? Going to the Apple store tomorrow and I'll be upset as hell if I don't walk out with a brand new one.
