I purchased a early '08 Penryn MBP on sale a week after the new ones were released. I loved the performance bump from my 12" PB, but I have come to be annoyed constantly by the nagging crackles and pops from the (apparent) sound card issue.

The reason I didnt purchase the new MBP was due to $$ factors, and the reason I didnt go with the new MB was due to my ext. HDD is FW. Oh, I also dislike the glossy screen. I took my MBP into apple to see if they could fix the audio issue (kind of wanted to just hear what they would say) and they offered a new MBP as a replacement.

What would you do? I dont like the sound issues, but I also like the matte screen. Given the choice which would you take and why?

Cheers.
