This just started happening 3 months ago (after having the display for 1 year) the screen will go out and then "scramble" back on. The only way I can describe the "scramble" is that it seems to turn back on but as scrambled colored lines, patches of the screen visible and the rest completely black. It almost looks like an anaolog colored (white) noise feeling. I can't take a screenshot or photo of it as it happens very randomly. It almost seems like a power or connection to the computer might be bad but I've tried wiggling the connector and that doesn't make it worse or better.

Has anyone had this same problem? Should I take it into the Apple store and have them troubleshoot?

thanks for any info.
