| In 2007, customers of the Apple display filed a class action lawsuit against Apple, claiming that the inverter board of the Apple 17-inch LCD Studio Display was faulty. It caused a gradient dimming on the top or bottom half of the screen and a power light to constantly blink on and off in a short-short-long pattern to signal a problem. Apple denies all allegations, but agreed to settle to not risk supporting the cost of a lawsuit. Apple agreed to provide a cash refund to Class Members who paid for the type of repair covered by the settlement and who send in a valid claim form. | |
