Yes; plus, there were some reliability problems too. These machines were
under an Apple "Repair Extension Program" (a/k/a "recall"....), in which
(according to info on their web site), they would fix the recall problems
for free, for "as long as Apple services these machines" (7 years after
discontinued, in the US).
