This is official and on the Apple Support Page, the MacBook Pro should only work 2 years from the date of purchase, even if sold with defective components.
$1999 for the “entry-level” laptop, sold with defective chips (nVidia’s GPU: GeForce 8600M GT), known as defective by nVidia, and now by Apple, and wtf the reaction? Just to said that it’s the consumer that will pay after the first 2 years for that!
Real nice
Ven, the graphical designer that work with me on the company website, has problems with it’s new MacBook Pro Unibody.
some MacBook Pro seems to be insomniacs
Typically the MacBook Pro go to sleep when lid is closed, and then wake up minutes later, overheating while closed (fans doesn’t seems to start!), and surface where really hot when he discover that.
We found many witnesses of some related problems on the Web, with new MacBook or MacBook Pro refusing to go awake from sleeping mode, rebooting when awaking, awaking themselves and overheaten, making battery dies in hours (while theorically in sleep mode), and so on.
After the trackpad problems, the GeForce 9600M GT videocard black-screen of death, the third-party RAM problems, now there’s sleep/awaking problems!
These new MacBook & MacBook Pro seems really badly conceived from scratch.
The old MacBook Pro equipped with nVidia’s GeForce 8600M GT have some problems to resist it’s own heat, some laptops finishing with a black screen ou fuzzy lines after 3D games play, needin’ motherboard replacement. Apple extended their GPU warranty to 3 years, not solving the problem at all.
MacBook Pro w/ GeForce 9600M GT
The new MacBook Pro comes with a nVidia’s GeForce 9600M GT that seems to be overheaten (again), ending with black screens. Hopefully the laptop seems to be alive after a reset.
But the main reason to choose a MacBook Pro over a MacBook is the integrated GeForce 9600M GT 3D GPU able to give 3X to 5X more game speed, or to enable real CUDA computations.
What will Apple do this time?
Ven the graphic designer and integrator in our web team just received it’s new MacBook Pro.
At work he use an iMac that makes him like Apple products, so the MacBook Pro is he’s first Mac, he’s planning to get ride of the PC World, and that makes me happy 
Ven
I wont comment about the glossy screen, juste to say it’s not really good outside on summertime, and remind that I had a MacBook (glossy too) and that was manageable if not the best for Photographic work.
nVidia communicates the supported memory limits on the GeForce 9400M chipset that fuels the new MacBook and MacBook Pro : 8GB maximum, 2×4GB DDR3 sticks.
Apple specifications is 4GB (2×2GB DDR3 sticks), but since Leopard runs in 64bits mode on MacBook & MacBook Pro it is still possible that 8GB may be recognized, we will have to check it
