Anyone here having a problem with their MacBook randomly shutting down? There seems to be quite a few people on Apple's forums discussing this. It happened once to me (in the 8 days I've had my MB) when awaking from sleep.

My Macbook Pro started randomly shutting down ... two or three days ago? Didn't realize what it was until last night... now I realize why everyone's been complaining.

Going to try to take it to the Apple store and demand a refund once it gets to the point of doing it frequently... this and all the other problems... eh. I wouldn't even mind a refund right about now.

Seems like they are either replacing the logic board or the battery first. Some people have even mentioned multiple logic board replacements d/t this problem occurring after having it fixed and it still not working properly.
