Long overdue, and it's a shame it takes a lawsuit these days to force
Apple to do the right thing. My MacBook Pro 17 is one of the effected
models, but I haven't pushed the video hardware enough to see any
problems with it. I plan to spend some quality time during the next
month or two pushing the hell out of it to see if I can get any of the
qualifying symptoms.
