[QUOTE="mcnaryxc, post: 584970, member: 32661"] Hey all, Recently, my MBP's screen has been darker on the left side of the screen than the right side. It seems to only show up when I start up, but it doesn't go away for a good 20 minutes on low light, or about 5 minutes when the brightness is at high. It bugs me in general, but I'm also an engineering/design student so I need my screen to stay in good shape. I think it's pretty significant, but you can have your own opinion looking at my pictures. I've owned many laptops but I've never had a screen problem like this before. I have owned this Macbook Pro since Nov 2006, but I do have the 3 year AppleCare so I could take it to the Apple Store, but I'm afraid it won't show up when they look at it or they won't believe me. (Like that ever happens, right?) Any advice? (I was thinking about going to the Apple Store anyway because I'm missing the silver "O" in "Pro" on the Macbook Pro logo below the screen. ;P) [ATTACH=full]7908[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]7909[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]7910[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
