NVIDIA GeForce 8600M and 2007-08 MacBook Pro Saga: Part 4

September 21st, 2009

This is the latest news that I have received about my MacBook Pro since I shipped it last Tuesday. But more importantly, I was told long before I shipped it that I would be notified immediately if the problem that I claimed wasn’t the case and would be charged for anything otherwise. So, this appears to be proof that I was right. My Mac’s GPU was defective and do not have to pay a cent for it’s replacement. And let me add that this is roughly a $1,200 dollar repair job (the cost of a 13-inch MacBook Pro). I’m still crossing my fingers about this repair.

Now while I’d love for this process to be expedited, I will remain grateful for the present outcome.

Stay synced for further updates on this issue.

P.S. If you own a MacBook Pro that you bought between Fall 2007 and Summer 2008, this same thing could possibly happen to you, if not already.
