If you own a 27-inch iMac that's afflicted by the cursed screen-flickering problem, Apple's 27-inch iMac Display Firmware Update 1.0 [1] will come as very good news. The update claims to correct the iMac's firmware to ensure proper display performance, eliminating the widespread flickering issue marring the displays of many 27-inch iMacs (see "New iMac Screens Cracking and Flickering [2]," 10 December 2009). Be sure to follow Apple's warning not to turn your computer off during installation. More information [3] regarding installation is also available on Apple's Web site. The update is available via Software Update or the Apple Support Downloads page. (Free, 294 KB)
