[QUOTE="illy5603, post: 490880, member: 38307"] Wow... I am starting to think getting an iMac was a bad decision. I am in love with the OS and the applications but I am 2 for 2 on defective systems. The symptom this time is blue tint where it is supposed to be white and redish flickering colors where there is supposed to be black. It is definitely hardware, when I took a screen shot of it with command shift 3, the screen shot looked fine when I rebooted. The symptom comes and goes as it pleases. I have seen this before on other LCD monitors... sigh... The first iMac I took back was no big deal because I had only had it 1 day and chalked it up to a fluke but this is starting to get kind of ridiculous and I spent the entire weekend installing and registering programs on the machine, probably about 12-20 hours total and am not in the mood to simply replace it for a third one. Is it unreasonable to request they transfer my Hard Disk into a replacement? I can't believe I am the only one that this is happening to either. [/QUOTE]
