[QUOTE="johnodd4, post: 1604189, member: 331386"] actually it's not worthless and you need to really understand something that you are not going to like at all. 98.9% of the time it's not your monitor or in this case your laptops screen it could be your graphics card is going out as well there is a flaw though i am aware of in that model where repeated opening and closing of the laptop causes the laptops screen ribbon cable to tear creating video card and lcd and led shorts on the screen not only for internal monitors but external monitors as well this is why most people purchase a macbook air just for this reason. be glad it's not a aluminium macbook pro the core 2 duo macbook pro aluminum model has a bad graphics card made by nvidia and in order to fix it you have to purchase a new main board at 800.00 [/QUOTE]
