Apple internally acknowledges more 27" iMac screen issues
The monstrous screen on the 27″ iMac, while a beautiful sight to behold, can be equally unsightly when some flaw is discovered. Issues such as flickering video and cracked glass have been problematic for some users, possibly causing shipping delays for recent orders. Now, an issue of yellowish areas appearing on some screens may be causing further shipping delays. While Apple hasn’t publicly acknowledged the problem, an internal tech support document reveals it is aware of the problem.
The problem appears in a number of ways, including vertical or horizontal stripes that appear more yellow than surrounding areas. It can also manifest as a yellowish tint that becomes more obvious in one corner of the screen. Obviously it’s not something you want to see when you’ve just spent $1,700 or more on a new computer.
According to one Gizmodo reader who attempted to fix the problem on his own, the problem is related to a layer of material behind the LCD used the scatter the LED backlight. He suspects this material may become misaligned during shipping, causing some areas of the backlight to have an uneven color temperature.
Whatever the cause, information on the issue appears to be in Apple’s internal support system. Apple support technicians are told to tell customers complaining about the issue that slight variations are normal. If the customer complains further, the tech is supposed to get contact information so the customer can be contacted about having the display panel replaced “in approximately three weeks.” Those asking for “immediate resolution” should be offered a refund and not a replacement.
While the problem also seems to affect 21.5″ iMac models as well, the Apple support information doesn’t address those models.
Since Apple specifically mentioned a three-week window for an expected fix, you might want to hold off buying one in the meantime. Online orders quote at least a three week wait, so Apple may be holding of shipping machines until the fix in place. Still, for users currently experiencing the problem, another month-long wait or a refund probably isn’t a very satisfying solution.

Apple may have business-friendly iPad features up its sleeve
Disagreements about the lack of certain features aside, Apple clearly had casual computer users in mind when building the iPad. Still, that doesn’t mean Apple will ignore enterprise users, which have been adopting the iPhone in growing numbers.
iWork is a nod to users who need to get work done using an iPad. Pages, Numbers, and Keynote cover word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation tasks. The iPad can also be attached to a projector to give a presentation directly from the device. You can still import and export files compatible with Microsoft’s Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, just like you can with the desktop versions.
If for some reason iWork won’t serve your productivity needs, at the very least it serves as a proof of concept. Microsoft could develop iPad versions of Office apps if it determines that the demand was there. And, while Office is pervasive in the corporate world, the potential for productivity apps from other vendors is there as well—Omni is already talking about porting OmniGraffle to the iPad, for instance.
The iPad still retains the enterprise features of iPhone OS, including Exchange ActiveSync support for e-mail, contacts, and calendars. But according to AppleInsider’s sources, Apple has some enterprise-friendly features planned for the iPad that haven’t yet been publicly announced. One feature is a planned ability to access standard file servers on a local network. The other is the ability to print to networked printers. Combined with Office-compatible iWork apps, an iPad could be useful for many routine business tasks.
These features won’t make the iPad appealing for every business. Especially in larger corporate environments, admins still need better management tools than Apple currently offers for its mobile devices. And security must remain a priority, since many corporations have legal responsibilities to protect certain kinds of data.
Still, its good to see Apple is thinking about some of the business use cases for the iPad, since its size and weight will likely appeal to some enterprise users.
