Wayne has it right there. The "new" macbook pro's are AFAICT the only ones suffering en
masse from this type of problem - but it's not universal. I got mine in April/May 2006 - I
haven't checked to see if it's only Intel-chipped mbps that are wobbly. Powerbooks,
iBooks, G4s or whatever the earlier versions/incarnations were called appear to be very
reliable. Hopefully the "newer" macbook pros incorporate any fixes.
