White spots on the Aluminum 15″ PowerBook G4
Alas, I have confirmed that my new 15″ PowerBook is among those that have the notorious white spot problem. If you haven’t heard about it, you can check out the equally-melodramatic CNET and ZDNet article archives, or for a more technical, level-headed explanation check MacFixIt. Thanks to the Pillarist for that weblog post that took me to the MacFixIt article.
It sucks, but I am sure that Apple will handle it as well as they did the LCD problem I had in 2001 with my Titanium PowerBook.
