> The burn-in is the one issue where Apple dropped the ball, but it's obviously not big enough to get the attention of major media It sounds awfully like the yellow tinge issue for the iMac screens. I ordered a 21" on the online Apple Store, and it had the tinge. Called Apple, they sent me another and picked up the previous one. It was worse. The third one was better but still affected. The fourth one was on par with the first. All of that cost me zero money, and every Apple rep was friendly. At that point I had gathered enough info from various forums to know that about 50% of the 21" screens were affected, whereas the odds were much, much lower (maybe 15%) for the 27", and there was some dry-up effect that would make it disappear (whereas the 21" only got worse). Yet it was out of my budget (the 21" was a bargain at the time, one of the rare times where it was not 1$:1€). I called for what I thought was a final order cancellation (I was ready to buy a demo unit that I knew was not affected because I saw it in an Apple Store), and even before I mentioned anything except that the last unit was still affected, the rep called his manager to cancel the order and offer me a rebate which spanned the price difference between the 21" and the 27". That one had the tinge vanish in a few hours of use and is working fantastic to this day.
