Hey I have a 20" Core Duo iMac. I've noticed the last few weeks that the little green light that used to come on up by my isight when it was active no longer works. Camera still works fine in both iChat and photobooth, so it's really not that big a deal but still, its a little troubling. I suppose I could call up apple and see what they have to say. I dunno that it'd be worth the fuss exchanging it even if they were willing to though.

Anyone else experience or hear of similar problems or know what apple's policy on this is?

For a Revision A this one tiny defect is pretty acceptable. I still consider myself lucky.

Man, you are lucky. I hate that little green light. Why couldn't they make it white?

But you're right. The Rev A iMacs are the only Intels that have been nearly flawless and I think we should be thankful for that. If your iSight's light is the only thing wrong then that's still pretty good. I'd still call Apple though
