hi i bought a macbook a few days ago. 2ghz core 2 duo.

i noticed that if i look "straight" at the screen everything looks normal but if i lower my head, meaning i would need to look "up" at the screen, the grey part on the brush aluminum GUI becomes yellowish/brownish. this does not happen on my near 1 year old imac, nor does it happen on my 5 year old powerbook g4.

those of you have macbooks or macbook pros could you please try to look at the screen as described above and see if you see what i see?

thanks.

ps: perhaps the gloss screen surface has something to do with this?

No idea what you're talking about. Looks fine on my MB. Maybe you do have some setting off, or a bad screen. Call Apple Care.

I have a Macbook and when I look upward and the LCD is tilted down, the title bar looks darker, maybe you could call it a yellowish/brownish gray. But this is just inherent with LCD's in general. Different viewing angles change how the colours appear.
