I hate the "Genius Bar" because I feel that the people at the Genius Bar are either incredibly uninformed or are outright liars. I took it to an Apple authorized facility rather than the Genius Bar. It had all the classic symptoms of the graphics card issue. The logic board on the machine I use first failed in May 2013.


Though all have been replaced under AppleCare, it is clear that Apple has a quality control problem. I have onen mid 2010 MacBook Pro (Purchased in late 2010) that is on its third logic board since May 2013 (and a failed optical drive), and two other that are each on their second logic boards.
