Regarding the dead pixels of my daughter's MacBook Pro, I looked at the
dents in the case lid that was cited as reason for not fixing the
display under warranty. There are two of them, very small, that appear
as nearly straight hairline dents. Using a precision caliper accurate
to 0.001 inch, I measured them as follows:
Dent 1: length 0.14 inches, width 0.054 inches, depth 0.04 inches
Dent 2: length 0.22 inches, width 0.050 inches, depth 0.02 inches
The depth measurement is an estimate (using my fingernail to insert in
the dent, then measuring the depth of the fingernail) since the dents
are too small for my caliper to measure the depth.
The location of these two dents are near the Apple logo in the center
lid. None of the dead pixels are near the two dents, but are randomly
distributed about the display screen.
I'm beginning to think that these dents are being used as an excuse for
not honoring the warranty. My daughter says that some of the dead
pixels were there before she dropped her headphone onto the closed case.
Advice for both CD problem & display?

It would be cheaper and make more sense if she bought an external

P.S. I misunderstood daughter. The MacBook Pro does not have a DVD
burner, only the CD burner that came with it. She was told to backup
data to CDs. All other info correct.
