Wow, over 400$ savings on the highest end models? I would definitely not buy them new at this point.

You're not the only one. Between the screens and the creaky cases, the manufacture defects are through the roof on this version. Seems the norm with the new Apple.
Seriously I gave up.

Listen to me folks, I'm not some crazy guy on the internet who has some idealistic measure of quality that Apple cannot meet. I had five of these notebooks and they all had issues with their screens.

I have have four previous Apple Notebooks, no yellow on any of them, I still use my current Apple notebook yellow free. I have an iPhone 5, no yellow. I have an iPad Air, no yellow. All perfect displays.

If you get one of these refurbs, good luck, because you will need it.

The long-rumored "iPhone Ultra" ended up being named iPhone Duo, so speculation that Apple...
