Worldwide recall of Apple Macbook Pro with Nvidia Display Card

tekgik — Sat, 11 Oct 2008 06:54:53 +0000

Apple is offering free refund, repair of Macbook Pro.

Read below from Apple Support

Symptoms

In July 2008, NVIDIA publicly acknowledged a higher than normal failure rate for some of their graphics processors due to a packaging defect. At that same time, NVIDIA assured Apple that Mac computers with these graphics processors were not affected. However, after an Apple-led investigation, Apple has determined that some MacBook Pro computers with the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processor may be affected. If the NVIDIA graphics processor in your MacBook Pro has failed, or fails within two years of the original date of purchase, a repair will be done free of charge, even if your MacBook Pro is out of warranty.

What to look for:

Distorted or scrambled video on the computer screen
No video on the computer screen (or external display) even though the computer is on

Specific products affected:

MacBook Pro 15-inch and 17-inch models with NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processors
- MacBook Pro (17-Inch, 2.4GHz)
- MacBook Pro (15-Inch, 2.4/2.2GHz)
- MacBook Pro (Early 2008)
These computers were manufactured between approximately May 2007 and September 2008

Luckily, my MBP have no sign of these although I have a different problem with my unit, it freezes and slows down quite often. :/

iPhone 3G available Aug. 22

tekgik — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 01:24:42 +0000

The highly anticipated iPhone 3G will be available on August 22 via Globe Telecom with a disappointing price of the prepaid unit at Php41,000. At this price i will not buy it, its not practical and its not worth the money IMHO. Id probably buy the Nokia e71 instead of this.

Click the Globe announcement here
