Can customers request LG or Samsung screens at time of purchase?

[philMBP]

Has anyone been able to get phone sales reps to enter customer requests into the order system? If yes, did it make a difference?

I just ordered my MBP (Nov 17 2007) and am worried that I might end up with a yellowing Samsung. If I do and get a replacement or return and reorder, do I run the risk of getting another and another...

Unfortunately no.

nope; just a roll of the dice I'm afraid.

there is no way for them to tell, and they are NOT going to open box after box looking for the one you want...besides i love my samsung

Is this still an issue?
