First of all, I'm new here so hello everyone!
Now, onto business. I have a 2006 black Macbook. Several months ago, the LCD backlight started to cut out every time I tilted it towards myself beyond an 80 degree angle. (I haven't measured it. That's just a guess, but it cuts out at least a couple of degrees before being at a 90 degree angle.) If I move the laptop to a place where the screen catches external light, I can see the images on the screen, so it's not that the LCD itself is blacking out.
Anyway, this hasn't caused me any problems so far, but today when I turned it on, it started to cut out when I tilted it right back, and towards myself, leaving me a small screen tilt amount to play with. It's stopped doing that now, but I'm just worried that it's a problem that could get a lot worse, very quickly and want to sort it out before that happens.
Any help/suggestions/wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
