[HM] iMac flickering screen

[onder]

Hi miss Mary C.,

this is out of your hand..in those serries of imacs there is a "production
problem". After this screen problem your mac'hine will shut down soon.

We have such a problem in here (Turkey) too.

Only go to any mac's technical service and change the screen port. in here
services change that 200 $..

There is no other way.

Also Apple says that this is a "user guide problem" (i know this is silly
but...) and do not take this problem into guarantee.

We have 12 imacs here that laying down on the floor whose screens died.

sincerely
