Vertical Lines on Screen

Date of Review: Nov 14, 2007

The Bottom Line:  Do not spend the extra money to get a Mac.
After reading that other Mac users are having vertical line problems on their screens, I elected to call Apple for assistance with this problem. I just wasted an hour of my time. They deny that this is an issue, even after having me do some thing to try to clear up the issue. I have today 45 vertical lines. I assume with time I will have many more as it just stared with one and keeps growing. I have read that other people have spent from $500. and up to get this problem corrected. I will consider this an important issue when I spend the next $3000. or more on a new computer, will I spend money on something that is not supported by its manufacturer?
When this problem started, I believed what I read on the Mac website, that it is possible because of how the screens are made/designed to have a few lines. This was while it was still in warranty. Now that is is out of warranty and the line problem is getting worse I find that I am not alone in having this issue. I wish I had searched further while it was still in warranty.

The lines are very hard for me to deal with.
