In follow-up, the problem with the display continued and became 
consistent awakening from sleep (at which time the only way I could see 
was to restart the computer which consistently resolved the problem 
until in slept again).  So I sent screen shots (pics) of the problem to 
apple and they sent the box yesterday.  Well today for some reason the 
problem has completely disappeared.   Go figure.   Not a trace of the 
"Matrix-like" screen display problem at all.  So I'm thinking that the 
video card must be lose or something like that.  I should mention that 
at one point I even initialized the HD and reinstalled all the software 
the hard way just to rule out a software issue but the problem was 
still evident after sleeping it.  So, if you were me..would you send it 
in and hope they can figure it out or wait until the problem returns?
