Just got my week 9 i7 yesterday as a replacement. I think this makes my 4th/5th replacement. Kinda lost track of it. Anyways, the system is top notch. No issues whatsoever (knock on wood). No yellow tinge, no LED backlight bleeding, no loose fan bolts, no video card issues. Nothing. Just absolutely perfect so far. I can't be happier. It sure has been a long 4-5 months, but I think I finally got a perfect one.

When was this iMac ordered? (when was the request put in and shipped?)

How much has Apple reimbursed you for your time and inconvenience?
 
How about the horizontal gray banding issue at the bottom of the display?

Nope no issue at all. Had that on the previous one but not this one. It is perfect so far (knock on wood).

just got my week 10 i7 today from shanghi ship to ny. This is my 5th replacement. overall best one I have gotten so far. Yellow tint is still there..BUT faintest one ever and most smoothest. Now I got faint yellow everywhere except for the very top, I guess thats more uniform in color...

might have to go to the bring it to apple store route next.
