Intel MacBook Shutdown Problems

Sep 7, 2006 9:54PM PDT

If you have an Intel MacBook that is spontaneously shutting down, for no apparent reason, slide on over to the Apple site via this link.

Answer a few questions and, if your MacBook meets the requirements, Apple will repair it FREE of charge.

Most MacBooks are under warranty anyway but Apple has acknowledged a problem with certain machines. Problem appears to be with the logic board and heatsink.
