Hmmm. Much as I admire further developments in the OS to support better 
graphics hardware and can understand their price tag, I can't quite get 
my head around seeing someone being potentially charged cash to fix a 
fundamental problem in something that has a high three to low four figure 
price tag in the first place.

It might be a particularly irritating nVidia card revision at fault here. 
In such a case, swapping out the card might be a cost-effective solution, 
if Castle were up for it. Then they'd have the problematic card back at 
base to continue analysing the problem and hopefully come up with a 
software fix for those that still see graphics issues at startup, albeit 
less often.
