APPLE CONFIRMS MACBOOK AIR DISPLAY ISSUES

According to BGR, Apple's internal support system confirms that the new 11-inch and 13-inch MacBook Airs are experiencing display bugs in some cases. Both the flickering and fading are known issues, although there's no real fix for them—yet.

Apple employees have been told to say that they're aware of the problem, and that a software fix is "upcoming." In the meantime, you're encouraged to put the computer to sleep, wait ten seconds, then restart the computer to force a display power cycle.
