On my beloved Ti, I am occasionally getting
weird multiple thin green colored lines all over
my desktop - disappears on a reboot.

Anyone experience anything like this -

I'd check with Apple service. It sounds reminiscent of a cable problem I had with and earlier powerbook. Does it change when you move the display?

neutrino23 - It does 'sparkle' a little - But phobos over
on the OSX thread mentioned it's probably a graphics card failure.

Looks like I may be losing my baby for a while :(

Three possibilities:

- display cable
- TFT panel itself (was my problem, crappy Samsung QI)
- Logic Board (rather unlikely)

Amazing! No corresponding images? How serious we get when our machines go buggy. Hope it's something simple and you don't have to send your machine in for repair.

I'd miss you.

Buster: Oh, yeah yeah, those guys did a pretty good job.
