I have a 2.4GHz from week 44 and it went through two repairs but Apple Technicians don't seem to be able to fix my 1/3 yellowish-tone screen bottom.

So I am wondering how the newest machines are doing in that regard.

For those of you with a 2.6GHz 15" MBP, could you please comment the screen issue and any other problem you may have.

I am also interested in reading accounts of the fans behavior, whether you find they kick-in too often and go all the way up to above 5,000 rpm, mainly.

Thank you for your help.
 
I feel for you. Attempted to land a healthy MBP twice, and finally asked for a refund. I decided not to purchase another Apple laptop until the company improves the display quality.
 
Yellow out the shoot, sent it back for repair - yellowing again. it's going back again today.
