I'm on my third LCD for my 15" AlBook (two replaced for white spots.) I was so happy to go a few weeks without them on this one, and then BAM! the right side of the display got dim…

Apple never makes mistakes It's not apple's fault. 2 plus 2 equals 5 Oceania was always at war with east asia.

The lid construction is the problem for the bad LCD display. I have already seen hundreds of units with unacceptable quality. NONE of the 15.2" aluminum units that I have worked p…

Originally started with a 15" AlBook, had the screen replaced once due to spots and uneven illumination. All was fine, for about a week - no more spots but the uneven illumination …

It happens to my 2001 iceBook. Turning the brightness all the way up and then back to regular brightness works, but the issue still sucks.

I support Apple by buying their products. However, why is a replacement screen acceptable? If you pay that much money a replacement would peeve me off especially if the machine w…

I have been hearing about this for the 15" powerbooks for a long time. This is not just a issue for that powerbook. I have a 667mhz Powerbook that will be 3 years old in Dec of 200…

I thought it was bridgestone/firestone not goodyear.

My 15 1.25 has been perfect from day one. No white spots, no bad pixels, no dark spots. Everyone--yes, PC users too--are amazed by the machine and the screen quality. I get complim…

Also, some general advice: 1. If you have a problem that's not too severe, and your stuff is already installed on your new 'Book anyway... keep using it. Get it fixed in a few mon…
